[PATCH] util: virExec may blocked by reading pipe if grandchild prematurely exit

[Yi Wang]

From: Xu Chao <xu.ch...@zte.com.cn>

When VIR_EXEC_DAEMON is set, if virPidFileAcquirePath/virSetInherit failed,
then pipesync[0] can not be closed when granchild process exit, because
pipesync[1] still opened in child process. and then saferead in child
process may blocked forever, and left grandchild process in defunct state.
