[uml-devel] [PATCH 3/6] UML - fix mconsole stop

[Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com>]

From: Karol Swietlicki <magotari@gmail.com>

This patch brings back the functionality of stopping user mode linux
with the help of mconsole.

[ jdike - the bug being fixed is that the mconsole file descriptor is
already set O_NONBLOCK or not, depending on whether we want no
blocking (the normal case) or we want blocking (when an mconsole stop
is in effect), so the MSG_DONTWAIT is redundant in the normal case,
and wrong when we want to block. ]
