[PATCH v3 06/11] um: Reap winch thread if it fails

[benjamin at sipsolutions.net]

From: Benjamin Berg <benjamin at sipsolutions.net>

When the winch thread runs into an error condition, it would exit(1) and
never be reaped until shutdown time. Change this to write a command byte
which causes the driver to kill it, therefore reaping the child.
