This was quite straightforward after I figured out that the Pollset library does not pick up on changes to the set of fds while blocked on a poll call.

In order to allow the other threads to make changes to the pollset, I had to set a short (max 100ms) timeout for the call to poll in order to ensure that the pollset is refreshed. In my testing, this was a far more reliable solution than using a wakeup fd.

Examining other implementations, I see they delegate this to `update_map_with_saved_link`. This is empty in `frame_ppc.inline.hpp`, so I concluded that there is nothing to do for the two continuationHelper procedures either. I wouldn't mind a second opinion on this choice.

The underlying read call returns -1 as will other platforms, but instead of setting ECONNRESET, AIX just sets EAGAIN. I feel that this test may just not be feasible on AIX, and I've modified it accordingly.

This test passes without issue on my build & test system when run on its own, but when run as part of a test suite (eg. `make test TEST=jdk_loom`), it does not have enough time with the timeout previously specified in the test file.

let's make it `final`

src/java.base/aix/classes/sun/nio/ch/PollsetPoller.java line 102:

Suggestion:

        for (int i=0; i<n; i++) {
