If the host port is not open, a write() should either just return if the
file is opened in non-blocking mode, or block till the host port is
opened.

This is just half of the blocking/non-blocking story.

The other half will be addressed when we get rid of the cpu_relax() in
send_buf(). Add a fixme mentioning that case.
