Currently, the "poll" file operation checks if an asynchronous "read" (or "write" command is active on the "read" (or "write" subdevice, but does not consider whether the command was started from the file object being polled. Since that is the only file object able to read (or write) data, take it into consideration. With this change, if no read (or write) command is running on the subdevice, or it is started by a different file object, the file object is marked as readable (or writeable) regardless, but the read (or write) file operation will return an error.
