[PATCH 05/10] perf trace: Filter out POLLHUP'ed file descriptors

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>

So that we don't continue polling on vanished file descriptors, i.e.
file descriptors for events monitoring threads that exited.

I.e. the following 'trace' command now exits as expected, instead
of staying in an eternal loop:

      $ sleep 5s &
      $ trace -p `pidof sleep`
