The patch looks correct as far as it goes, but it doesn't seem actually to fix any problem. In particular, few will know to set the "-f" option, and the default is as ill-chosen as the hard-coded value was. Why should it poll more than 5 times/s? Indeed, why should it poll at all? Might it not better wake only when there is a relevant event? Changing the compiled-in value from 20000 to 200000 might be an improvement. The correct fix would have no use for a "-f" argument at all.
