Subject: fs,eventpoll: Don't test for bitfield with stack value
In case if epoll_ctl is called with operation EPOLL_CTL_DEL then
@epds.events variable allocated on stack may contain random bits which
we test then for EPOLLEXCLUSIVE. Since currently the test look
like
if (epds.events & EPOLLEXCLUSIVE) {
if (op == EPOLL_CTL_MOD)
goto error_tgt_fput;
if (op == EPOLL_CTL_ADD && (is_file_epoll(tf.file) ||
(epds.events & ~EPOLLEXCLUSIVE_OK_BITS)))
goto error_tgt_fput;
}
Nothing serious will happen even if epds.events has this bit set,
still better to be on safe side and make sure that we're to test
this bit at all.
