The poll function should not return -ERESTARTSYS.

Furthermore, locking in this function is completely unnecessary. The
ddev->lock protects access to the main device and controller (ddev->dev
and ddev->ctrl), ensuring that both are and remain valid while being
accessed by clients. Both are, however, never accessed in the poll
function. The shutdown test (via atomic bit flags) be safely done
without locking, so drop locking here entirely.

Thank you for your patch, I've applied this patch to my review-hans 
branch:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pdx86/platform-drivers-x86.git/log/?h=review-hans

I will also include this in the next pdx86-fixes pull-req for 5.13.

Note it will show up in my review-hans branch once I've pushed my
local branch there, which might take a while.

Once I've run some tests on this branch the patches there will be
added to the platform-drivers-x86/for-next branch and eventually
will be included in the pdx86 pull-request to Linus for the next
merge-window.

Regards,

Hans
