Davide Libenzi 9ce209d64d epoll: avoid double-inserts in case of EFAULT
In commit f337b9c583 ("epoll: drop
unnecessary test") Thomas found that there is an unnecessary (always
true) test in ep_send_events().  The callback never inserts into
->rdllink while the send loop is performed, and also does the
~EP_PRIVATE_BITS test.  Given we're holding the mutex during this time,
the conditions tested inside the loop are always true.

HOWEVER.

The test "!ep_is_linked(&epi->rdllink)" wasn't there because we insert
into ->rdllink, but because the send-events loop might terminate before
the whole list is scanned (-EFAULT).

In such cases, when the loop terminates early, and when a (leftover)
file received an event while we're performing the lockless loop, we need
such test to avoid to double insert the epoll items.  The list_splice()
done a few steps below, will correctly re-insert the ones that were left
on "txlist".

This should fix the kenrel.org bugzilla entry 11831.
