This allows eventdev dequeue API to sleep when the port queue is empty and gets wakeup when event arrives at the port. Port dequeue mode is configured using devargs argument port_dequeue_wait. Supported modes are polling and interrupt. Default mode is polling. This commit also adds code to handle device error interrupts and print alarm details.

I've considered implementing this in DSW, although in a different manner (with eventfds and poll()).
The dequeue timeout will still be honored in "interrupt mode", correct? It wasn't obvious from the description.
What's being configured should just be a threshold time at which the event device would go from busy-polling to blocking the thread.
Maybe it should be called something with "blocking" or "sleeping", instead of "interrupt", since interrupts are never directly involved.
Anyway, seems like a good candidate for a generic feature to me.
