this code introduces a warning:
fs/eventpoll.c: In function ‘ep_poll’:
fs/eventpoll.c:1119: warning: ‘slack’ may be used uninitialized in this function

looks to me like you arent properly handling negative timeouts.
certainly epoll_wait() passes the timeout value straight from
userspace to ep_poll() without any error checking, so if userspace
passes a negative timeout value, it looks like "slack" will be used
uninitialized.
