Yeah, I understand your concerns, and the final section of 
__io_arm_poll_handler() sees
very complicated, it maybe need better cleanup.

After checking my patch and __io_arm_poll_handler() again, I think the 
race which maybe
introduced in my patch is that:
   1)  __io_arm_poll_handler() calls list_del_init(&poll->wait.entry) 
under completion_lock.
   2) io_poll_rewait calls add_wait_queue() without completion_lock.

But __io_arm_poll_handler() only calls list_del_init(&poll->wait.entry)  
when mask isn't zero.
and io_poll_rewait() only calls add_wait_queue when no real event 
happens(mask is zero).
So 1) and 2) should not happen at the same time, seems that there's no race.

Regards,
Xiaoguang Wang
