    misc: tst-poll: Proper synchronize with child before sending the signal

    When running the testsuite in parallel, for instance running make -j
    $(nproc) check, occasionally tst-epoll fails with a timeout.  It happens
    because it sometimes takes a bit more than 10ms for the process to get
    cloned and blocked by the syscall.  In that case the signal is
    sent to early, and the test fails with a timeout.

    Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.
