tls_sw_splice_read() takes its blocking behavior from
SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK alone. When splicing from a socket to a pipe,
do_splice() sets that flag from the pipe's O_NONBLOCK, not the
socket's. On a nonblocking socket, a splice(2) call without
SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK therefore sleeps in tls_rx_rec_wait() until a
record arrives. tcp_splice_read() instead reads sock->file->f_flags
and returns -EAGAIN.

Poll makes the sleep reachable. tls_sw_sock_is_readable() reports
the socket readable while any record sits on rx_list, including a
zero-length record that delivers no bytes to the pipe. The
strparser announces a record before decryption, when its plaintext
length is unknown, so the readiness test cannot screen such a
record out. The splice consumes it and waits for the next, and an
event loop that polls and then splices stalls every connection it
multiplexes.

Treat the socket's O_NONBLOCK as nonblocking too. A caller that
sets O_NONBLOCK and splices without SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK, taking that
flag to govern only the pipe, now gets -EAGAIN where it blocked
before. sendfile(2) from a TLS socket changes the same way, because
do_sendfile() leaves the input file's O_NONBLOCK out of the splice
flags. Both now behave as they do on a plain TCP socket.
