Subject: [PATCH 1/2] select: change do_poll() to return -ERESTARTNOHAND
 rather than -EINTR

do_poll() returns -EINTR if interrupted and after that all its callers
have to translate it into -ERESTARTNOHAND. Change do_poll() to return
-ERESTARTNOHAND and update (simplify) the callers.

Note that this also unifies all users of restore_saved_sigmask_unless(),
see the next patch.
