Subject: [PATCH 2/2] uml: Disable winch irq before freeing handler data.

Disable the winch irq early to make sure we don't
take an interrupt part way through the freeing of
the handler data, resulting in a crash on shutdown:

winch_interrupt : read failed, errno = 9
fd 13 is losing SIGWINCH support
