epoll: optimize setting task running after blocking

[Davidlohr Bueso]

After waking up a task waiting for an event, we explicitly
mark it as TASK_RUNNING (which is necessary as we do the
checks for wakeups as TASK_INTERRUPTABLE). Once running
and dealing with actually delivering the events, we're
obviously not planning on calling schedule, thus we can
relax the implied barrier and simply update the state with
__set_current_state().
