Unfortunately it is impossible to use list_empty(), since due to RCU
issues kevent can not use list_del_init(), so list_empty() will
always show that list is not empty.
I see, just use the LIST_POISON* scheme for now, it's something
we can refine later.
I've fixed timout issue Zach pointed, and will reend kevent 'take6'
patchset without AIO stuff soon.
Question with kevents removal from syscall stays open until Ulrich
accepts or declines mapped buffer implementation.
