6.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

[ Upstream commit c96fff391c095c11dc87dab35be72dee7d217cde ]
The poll man page says POLLRDNORM is equivalent to POLLIN. For poll(), it seems that if user sets pollfd with POLLRDNORM in userspace, perf_poll will not return until timeout even if perf_output_wakeup called, whereas POLLIN returns.
