Subject: [PATCH 02/23] vfs: Implement unpoll_file.

From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@...well.aristanetworks.com>

During a revoke operation it is necessary to stop using all state that is managed
by the underlying file operations implementation.  The poll wait queue is one part
of that state.

unpoll_file achieves that by walking through a specified waitqueue.  Finding
any entries that were added by select or poll of that file descriptor and
awakening them.  If action was taken unpoll sleeps and repeats until
the waitqueue has no entries for the spcified file.
