epoll: drop unnecessary test

Thomas found that there is an unnecessary (always true) test in
ep_send_events().  The callback never inserts into ->rdllink while the
send loop is performed, and also does the ~EP_PRIVATE_BITS test.  Given
we're holding the mutex during this time, the conditions tested inside the
loop are always true.  This patch drops the test done inside the
re-insertion loop.
