Subject: perf record: Use an eventfd to wakeup when done

The setting and checking of 'done' contains a rare race where the signal
handler setting 'done' is run after checking to break the loop, but
before waiting in evlist__poll(). In this case, the main loop won't wake
up until either another signal is sent, or the perf data fd causes a
wake up.

The following simple script can trigger this condition (but you might
need to run it for several hours):

for ((i = 0; i >= 0; i++)) ; do
  echo "Loop $i"
  delay=$(echo "scale=4; 0.1 * $RANDOM/32768" | bc)
  ./perf record -- sleep 30000000 >/dev/null&
  pid=$!
  sleep $delay
  kill -TERM $pid
  echo "PID $pid"
  wait $pid
done

At some point, the loop will stall. Adding logging, even though perf has
received the SIGTERM and set 'done = 1', perf will remain sleeping until
a second signal is sent.
