[PATCH] aio: Skip timer for io_getevents if timeout=0

[Fam Zheng <famz@redhat.com>]

In this case, it is basically a polling. Let's not involve timer at all
because that would hurt performance for application event loops.

In an arbitrary test I've done, io_getevents syscall elapsed time
reduces from 50000+ nanoseconds to a few hundereds.
