epoll: remove unnecessary xchg
xchg in ep_unregister_pollwait() is unnecessary because it is protected by
either epmutex or ep->mtx (the same protection as ep_remove()).
If xchg was necessary, it would be insufficient to protect against
problems: if multiple concurrent calls to ep_unregister_pollwait() were
possible then a second caller that returns without doing anything because
nwait == 0 could return before the waitqueues are removed by the first
caller, which looks like it could lead to problematic races with
ep_poll_callback().
So remove xchg and add comments about the locking.
