[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] main loop: fix some accesses made in sighandler context

[Laszlo Ersek <lersek@redhat.com>]

Make variables volatile. "sig_atomic_t" should cover "int" and "pid_t", but
where it doesn't, the patch should still do no harm.

Also replace calls to functions that are not required to be async-signal-safe
[1].

termsig_handler()
  -> qemu_system_killed(): shutdown_signal, shutdown_pid, no_shutdown [2]
    -> qemu_system_shutdown_request(): shutdown_requested
      -> qemu_notify_event()
        -> qemu_event_increment(): fprintf(), strerror(), exit()

[1] http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/V2_chap02.html#tag_15_04_03_03
[2] http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2011-09/msg01757.html

Build tested only.
