xenpaging: no poll timeout while page-out is in progress
The main loop calls xenpaging_wait_for_event_or_timeout() unconditionally
before doing any work. This function calls poll() with a timeout of 100ms. As
a result the page-out process is very slow due to the delay in poll().
Call poll() without timeout so that it returns immediately until the page-out
is done. Page-out is done when either the policy finds no more pages to
nominate or when the requested number of pages is reached.
The condition is cleared when a watch event arrives, so that processing the
new target is not delayed once again by poll().
