[PATCH] xfree86: Use SA_SIGINFO if available for SIGIO handlers

[Adam Jackson]

This one's slightly subtle, the fcntl(F_SETSIG) is required for ->si_fd
to actually be filled in correctly, at least on Linux.  I know this area
has been sensitive to platform variation in the past, so I'd appreciate
a second look from Solaris / BSD / Hurd people.

---

siginfo_t gives us the file descriptor that raised the signal directly,
so we don't need to select() for it.  This gets evdev event processing
down to exactly one syscall in the common case.
