perf evlist: Monitor POLLERR and POLLHUP events too We want to know when the fd went away, like when a monitored thread exits. If we do not monitor such events, then the tools will wait forever on events from a vanished thread, like when running: $ sleep 5s & $ perf record -p `pidof sleep` This builds upon the kernel patch by Jiri Olsa that actually makes a poll on those file descriptors to return POLLHUP. It is also needed to change the tools to use perf_evlist__filter_pollfd() to check if there are remainings fds to monitor or if all are gone, in which case they will exit the poll/mmap/read loop.
