I'm not sure I understood your question. The file descriptors added to epollfd
are always in sync with ppoll, so there is no difference between calling
epoll_wait and ppoll. When we come out of aio_external_disabled(), the same set
of fds will be polled, but the events got by ppoll should already be handled.
