[RFC PATCH v2 09/13] epoll: support polling from userspace for ep_remove()

From: Roman Penyaev
Date: Mon Jan 21 2019 - 15:16:08 EST


On ep_remove() simply mark a user item with EPOLLREMOVE if the item was
ready (i.e. has some bits set). That will prevent further user index
entry creation on item ->bit reuse.
