By moving the CUSE_INIT reply processing into the ->end() callback,
the device initialization becomes synchronous with the process writing
the message into the cuse device.

This means, that the process can simply wait for the write() on the
device to complete before proceeding.

I've updated the libfuse patch so it calls ->init_done() after sending
the CUSE_INIT reply.

Thanks,
Miklos
