[XDMA] always get IRQ by calling poll() /dev/xdma0_event_0 even when no IRQ occurs

Hi Vu Tang,

I am not sure if this is a bug or if poll is intended for some other use case. We ran into the same problem and I do not really understand the purpose of poll() as it is. However, there is an easy solution. You can use the read() function to get what you want. The read() function will (in the kernel driver) wait for an interrupt or until somebody wakes it. In case of an interrupt, it will then clear the interrupt and return to the user. It will also return a buffer with the index of the user_irq which was received.

The poll function is similar, but it seems like it does not clear the interrupt. At least that is how I remember it.

Best regards
