Allow busy polling on a per-epoll context basis. The per-epoll context
usec timeout value is preferred, but the pre-existing system wide sysctl
value is still supported if it specified.
Why do we need u64 for usecs? I think u16 would do, and u32 would give
a very solid "engineering margin". If it was discussed in previous
versions I think it's worth explaining in the commit message.
In patch 4/4 the value is limited to U32_MAX, but if you prefer I use a u32
here instead, I can make that change.
