perf/ring_buffer: Allow the EPOLLRDNORM flag for poll

[ 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.
