tcp: select(writefds) don't hang up when a peer close connection

This issue come from ruby language community. Below test program
hang up when only run on Linux.

	% uname -mrsv
	Linux 2.6.26-2-486 #1 Sat Dec 26 08:37:39 UTC 2009 i686
	% ruby -rsocket -ve '
	BasicSocket.do_not_reverse_lookup = true
	serv = TCPServer.open("127.0.0.1", 0)
	s1 = TCPSocket.open("127.0.0.1", serv.addr[1])
	s2 = serv.accept
	s2.close
	s1.write("a") rescue p $!
	s1.write("a") rescue p $!
	Thread.new {
	  s1.write("a")
	}.join'
	ruby 1.9.3dev (2010-07-06 trunk 28554) [i686-linux]
	#<Errno::EPIPE: Broken pipe>
	[Hang Here]

FreeBSD, Solaris, Mac doesn't. because Ruby's write() method call
select() internally. and tcp_poll has a bug.

SUS defined 'ready for writing' of select() as following.

|  A descriptor shall be considered ready for writing when a call to an output
|  function with O_NONBLOCK clear would not block, whether or not the function
|  would transfer data successfully.

That said, EPIPE situation is clearly one of 'ready for writing'.

We don't have read-side issue because tcp_poll() already has read side
shutdown care.

|        if (sk->sk_shutdown & RCV_SHUTDOWN)
|                mask |= POLLIN | POLLRDNORM | POLLRDHUP;

So, Let's insert same logic in write side.
