kselftest: introduce new epoll test case
Patch series "fs/epoll: restore user-visible behavior upon event ready". This series tries to address a change in user visible behavior, reported in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=208943. Epoll does not report an event to all the threads running epoll_wait() on the same epoll descriptor. Unsurprisingly, this was bisected back to 339ddb53 (fs/epoll: remove unnecessary wakeups of nested epoll), which has had various problems in the past, beyond only nested epoll usage. This patch (of 2): This incorporates the testcase originally reported in: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=208943 Which ensures an event is reported to all threads blocked on the same epoll descriptor, otherwise only a single thread will receive the wakeup once the event become ready.
