I'd vote for treating this patch just like the futexes one, making sure that those who know *how* can turn epoll off, but leave it out of make config.
Furthermore, I wonder if this patch is a large savings, the bulk of epoll is infrastructure, not the few syscalls.
All of this stuff should be disablable and far more. It probably all wants hiding under a single "Shrink feature set" type option most people can skip over as they do with kernel debugging.
What else should be disablable?
