yep, much better, thanks.

no where else in other tests are we logging this. I don't have a preference.
Should ksft_exit_fail_msg() do this automatically? Although it could be
logging a stale errno if it did.  Anyway I added logging of errno here, as
you suggest.

The original approach was to do this for proc pidfd, which means older
kernels could get a pidfd but couldn't do poll, in this case I wanted the
test to be skipped. Since we are now basing this on CLONE_PIDFD, there is
less of a reason for that. So I will just do ksft_exit_fail_msg() here.

I want a timeout for the case where epoll_wait blocks indefinitely, in which
case it should be a test failure.

Good catch, I will do sleep(1);

fixed, thanks to Tycho as well!

will try..

Will try a non-timing test, need to plan it out. Other comments are addressed
and will post again soon, thanks!
