The non-blocking ep_poll path optimization introduced skipping over
the return value setup.
Initialize it properly, my userspace gets upset by epoll_wait()
returning random things.
In addition, remove the reinitialization at the fetch_events label,
the return value is garuanteed to be zero when execution reaches
there.
