Subject: [PATCH 1/1] UML: fix missing non-blocking I/O, now DEBUG_SHIRQ
	works

*This message was transferred with a trial version of CommuniGate(r) Pro*
DEBUG_SHIRQ generates spurious interrupts, triggering handlers such as 
mconsole_interrupt() or line_interrupt(). They expect data to be 
available to be read from their sockets/pipes, but in the case of 
spurious interrupts, the host didn't actually send anything, so UML 
hangs in read() and friends. Setting those fd's as O_NONBLOCK makes 
DEBUG_SHIRQ-enabled UML kernels boot and run correctly. 

The patch was written and tested on Linux 2.6.22-rc2-mm1. 

I have also included a couple of short/minor fixes for potential
problems.
