There're several types of system calls for multiplexed I/O. They're used to
receive notifications of I/O events. Typically, userspace applications call
them against file descriptor to yield CPU. When I/O is enabled on any of
the descriptors, a task of the application is rescheduled, then the
application execute I/O calls.
This commit adds a common interface for this type of system calls, named as
'waiter'. This is expected to be used with non-blocking file operation and
operations on mapped page frame.
