[TIPC]: Cosmetic cleanup of TIPC polling logic
This patch eliminates an unnecessary poll-related routine
by merging it into TIPC's main polling routine, and updates
the comments associated with this code.

- * pollmask - determine the current set of poll() events for a socket

- * TIPC sets the returned events as follows:
- * a) POLLRDNORM and POLLIN are set if the socket's receive queue is non-empty
- * or if a connection-oriented socket is does not have an active connection
- * (i.e. a read operation will not block).
- * b) POLLOUT is set except when a socket's connection has been terminated
- * (i.e. a write operation will not block).
- * c) POLLHUP is set when a socket's connection has been terminated.
- *
- * IMPORTANT: The fact that a read or write operation will not block does NOT
- * imply that the operation will succeed!
