Subject[PATCH v2 2/2] mounts_poll() make consistent to mdstat_poll
Date
In recently sysfs_poll discussion, Neil Brown pointed out /proc/mounts also should
be fixed.

SUSv3 says "Regular files shall always poll TRUE for reading and writing".
see http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/poll.html

Then, mounts_poll()'s default should be "POLLIN | POLLRDNORM".
it mean always readable.

In addition, event trigger should use "POLLERR | POLLPRI" instead POLLERR.
it makes consistent to mdstat_poll() and sysfs_poll(). and, select(2) can
handle POLLPRI easily.
