Adding ->poll() to the pidfd should be easy. Again, it would be
trivially be made to work for the directory fd you get from
/proc/<pid> too.
Yeah, yeah, pollable directories are odd, but the vfs layer doesn't
care about things like "is this a directory or not". It will just call
the f_op->poll() method.
