Subject[ 153/180] epoll: clear the tfile_check_list on -ELOOP
2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jason Baron <jbaron@redhat.com>

commit 13d518074a952d33d47c428419693f63389547e9 upstream.

An epoll_ctl(,EPOLL_CTL_ADD,,) operation can return '-ELOOP' to prevent
circular epoll dependencies from being created. However, in that case we
do not properly clear the 'tfile_check_list'. Thus, add a call to
clear_tfile_check_list() for the -ELOOP case.
