I suggest you refrase the description a bit, which should describe what 
was the problem and what the patch does, so I was thinking something 
like this:

   Passing 1 as the target to notify_poll_in(), we don't honor
   what the user has set via SO_RCVLOWAT, going to set POLLIN
   and POLLRDNORM, even if we don't have the amount of bytes
   expected by the user.

   Let's use sock_rcvlowat() to get the right target to pass to
   notify_poll_in().

Anyway, the patch LGTM:
