Initially I thought it could be nice to split fixes for the 2 issues
in separate patches in case one of them ends up needing a revert or
something, but probably not worth a respin. Fixes look good to me.

This looks correct. I don't think I expected killall not to wait.

This seems like a simple refactor to only delete when shmaddr is set,
looks fine to me.

Setting shmaddr seems correct and an oversight. I don't see shmaddr
set anywhere in the current code.
