Match what is done to pfd[i].revents when compute_revents() returns
0 to the upstream gnulib's commit d42461c3 ("poll: fixes for large
fds", 2015-02-20). The revents field is set to 0, without
incrementing the value rc to be returned from the function. The
original code left the field to whatever random value the field was
initialized to.
This fixes occasional hangs in git-upload-pack on HPE NonStop.

HANDLE is defined internally as a void *, but in many cases it is
actually guaranteed to be a 32-bit integer. In these cases, GCC should
not warn about a cast of a pointer to an integer of a different type
because we know exactly what we are doing.

Ensure that when passing a pipe, the gnulib poll replacement will not
return 0 before the timeout has passed.
Not obeying the timeout (and merely returning 0) causes pathological
behavior when preparing a packfile for a repository and taking a
long time to do so. If poll were to return 0 immediately, this would
cause keep-alives to get sent as quickly as possible until the packfile
was created. Such deviance from the standard would cause megabytes (or
more) of keep-alive packets to be sent.
GetTickCount is used as it is efficient, stable and monotonically
increasing. (Neither GetSystemTime nor QueryPerformanceCounter have
all three of these properties.)

SwitchToThread() only gives away the rest of the current time slice
to another thread in the current process. So if the thread that feeds
the file decscriptor we're polling is not in the current process, we
get busy-waiting.
I played around with this quite a bit. After trying some more complex
schemes, I found that what worked best is to just sleep 1 millisecond
between iterations. Though it's a very short time, it still completely
eliminates the busy wait condition, without hurting perf.
There code uses SleepEx(1, TRUE) to sleep. See this page for a good
discussion of why that is better than calling SwitchToThread, which
is what was used previously:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1383943/switchtothread-vs-sleep1
Note that calling SleepEx(0, TRUE) does *not* solve the busy wait.
The most striking case was when testing on a UNC share with a large repo,
on a single CPU machine. Without the fix, it took 4 minutes 15 seconds,
and with the fix it took just 1:08! I think it's because git-upload-pack's
busy wait was eating the CPU away from the git process that's doing the
real work. With multi-proc, the timing is not much different, but tons of
CPU time is still wasted, which can be a killer on a server that needs to
do bunch of other things.
I also tested the very fast local case, and didn't see any measurable
difference. On a big repo with 4500 files, the upload-pack took about 2
seconds with and without the fix.
[jc: this was first accepted in msysgit tree in May 2012 via a pull
request and Paolo Bonzini has also accepted the same fix to Gnulib
around the same time; see $gmane/247518 for a bit more detail]

Sparse issues an 'Using plain integer as NULL pointer' warning when
passing the constant '0' as the second parameter in the call to the
WSAEventSelect() function. The function parameter has a pointer type
(WSAEVENT, aka HANDLE, aka void *) so that, in order to suppress the
warning, we simply pass NULL for that parameter in the function call
expression.

If poll() is used as a milli-second sleep, like in help.c, by passing a NULL
in the 1st and a 0 in the 2nd arg, it exits with EFAULT.
As per Paolo Bonzini, the original author, this is a bug and to be fixed
Like in this commit, which is not to exit if the 2nd arg is 0. It got fixed
In gnulib in the same manner the other day.
