->get_poll_head returns the waitqueue that the poll operation is going
to sleep on. Note that this means we can only use a single waitqueue
for the poll, unlike some current drivers that use two waitqueues for
different events. But now that we have keyed wakeups and heavily use
those for poll there aren't that many good reason left to keep the
multiple waitqueues, and if there are any ->poll is still around, the
driver just won't support aio poll.
->poll_mask is called after the wakeup to return the actual mask of
events reported by poll. It can be called with the waitqueue lock
held in some cases.
