Is there really a realistic chance that this write() can be interrupted?
helper_child() gets called via clone() in run_helper().

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.

It's always better not to think whether it's possible but simply kill
all the chances for this to happen.
In this case that's pretty trivial thing and also it solves issue with warning.
