[input] Patch to reopen console if zero length byte is read
As reported by John Hughes on
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=462626, Splashy is a small
boot splash program that starts from initramfs during early boot on Linux.
While Splashy is running, the contents of root (/) gets umounted and cleaned up
loosing access to the devices when the system started.
Using the following patch, when libdirectfb detects zero length reads, it
attempts to reopen the console (possibly from a newly mounted root tree).
This was the same solution that was suggested to us by Dennis a few months
ago. John arrived to the same conclusion independently (and submitted a patch!)
