hmm, this was just basically cut/paste from android libsync (and iirc
removing the legacy ioctls)..  although I did just realize there was a
newer version which turned this into:

   ret = poll(..);
   if (ret > 0)
      return 0;
   return ret;

perhaps not super-awesome for -EINTR handling.. and tbh I'm 100% of
the behavior when this used to be simply "return ioctl(fd,
SYNC_IOC_WAIT, &to);"..

I guess that would end up ignoring the fence name.. although not sure
that I care.  But probably we should either make the android version
behave the same, or pick new names for these fxns.  I think having
same names but slightly different behaviour would be confusing.

Oh, and now that I'm actually looking at that code, the extra null
terminator bit after the strncpy() is kinda unneeded..  should just
do:

       strncpy(data.name, name, sizeof(data.name));

(without the -1) instead
