Input: evdev - do not block waiting for an event if fd is nonblock
If there is a full packet in the buffer, and we overflow that buffer right after checking for that condition, it would have been possible for us to block indefinitely (rather, until the next full packet) even if the file was marked as O_NONBLOCK.
