Is the right order ?
It seems you wrote the patch, not Alexander or Jesse ?
They might Ack it eventually.

Instead of "bool set" you could use "unsigned int lls_bit"
and avoid conditional :
wait->_key |= lls_bit;
(you do not need to clear the bit in wait->_key, its already cleared in
wait_key_set())
Alternatively, add a parameter to wait_key_set(), it will be cleaner

Well, why enforce POLL_LL ?
Sure we do this for select() as the API doesn't allow us to add the LL
flag, but poll() can do that.
An application might set POLL_LL flag only on selected fds.
I understand you want nice benchmarks for existing applications,
but I still think that globally enable/disable LLS for the whole host
is not a good thing.
POLL_LL wont be a win once we are over committing cpus (too many sockets
to poll)
