Subject: [patch] eventfd - allow atomic read and waitqueue remove
KVM needs a wait to atomically remove themselves from the eventfd ->poll()
wait queue head, in order to handle correctly their IRQfd deassign
operation.
This patch introduces such API, plus a way to read an eventfd from its
context.
Andrew, they prefer to have this go through Avi's KVM tree, in order to
keep dependencies localized. So you just ignore this.
Avi, this fixes a few checkpatch warnings, so you should get this instead
of the one posted previously.
