From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx>
wake_up_poll() uses nr_exclusive=1, so it's not guaranteed to wake up
all exclusive waiters. Yet, POLLFREE *must* wake up all waiters. epoll
and aio poll are fortunately not affected by this, but it's very
fragile. Thus, the new function wake_up_pollfree() has been introduced.
Convert signalfd to use wake_up_pollfree().
