SubjectRe: POLLRDONCE optimisation for epoll users (was: epoll and half closed TCP connections)

POLLRDONCE isn't linked to epoll - it's a valid hint for poll/select too.

It means something different, i.e. you can't write:

> if (events & EPOLLRDHUP) {

Be careful, because that isn't valid if there is urgent data. You
need to check POLLPRI too. Granted urgent data is usually best ignored :)

If fast hangup is a useful optimisation too, we should have both flags.
(However calling read() doesn't seem like a great penalty for that).
