Guard wakeups that the user can trigger, and that may end up triggering a
call back into eventfd_signal. This is in addition to the current approach
that only guards in eventfd_signal.
Rename in_eventfd_signal -> in_eventfd at the same time to reflect this.
Without this there would be a deadlock in the following code using libaio:
int main()
{
struct io_context *ctx = NULL;
struct iocb iocb;
struct iocb *iocbs[] = { &iocb };
int evfd;
uint64_t val = 1;
evfd = eventfd(0, EFD_CLOEXEC);
assert(!io_setup(2, &ctx));
io_prep_poll(&iocb, evfd, POLLIN);
io_set_eventfd(&iocb, evfd);
assert(1 == io_submit(ctx, 1, iocbs));
write(evfd, &val, 8);
}

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
