Derived from kvm-tool patch
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/74309
Ingo Molnar pointed out that sending the timer signal to the whole
process, just blocking it everywhere, is suboptimal with an increasing
number of threads. QEMU is also using this pattern so far.
Linux provides a (non-portable) way to restrict the signal to a single
thread: We can use SIGEV_THREAD_ID unless we are forced to emulate
signalfd via an additional thread. That case could theoretically be
optimized as well, but it doesn't look worth bothering.

Use signalfd() in io-thread
This patch reworks the IO thread to use signalfd() instead of sigtimedwait()
This will eliminate the need to use SIGIO everywhere.

Replace signalfd with signal handler/pipe. There is no way to interrupt
the CPU execution loop when a file descriptor becomes readable. This
results in a large performance regression in sparc emulation during
bootup.
This patch switches us to signal handler/pipe which was originally
suggested by Ian Jackson. The signal handler lets us interrupt the
CPU emulation loop while the write to a pipe lets us avoid the
select/signal race condition.

It turns out, we're never reading from the signalfd() which is causing it to
remain readable forever. I'll fix this up but I thought I'd commit this fix
in the interim.
