[PATCH] net/virtio: fix socket nonblocking mode affects initialization

[Yuan Wang]

The virtio-user initialization requires unix socket to receive backend
messages in block mode. However, vhost_user_update_link_state() sets
the same socket to nonblocking via fcntl, which affects all threads.
Enabling the rxq interrupt can causes both of these behaviors to occur
concurrently, with the result that the initialization may fail
because no messages are received in nonblocking socket.

Thread 1:
virtio_init_device()
--> virtio_user_start_device()
        --> vhost_user_set_memory_table()
                --> vhost_user_check_reply_ack()

Thread 2:
virtio_interrupt_handler()
--> vhost_user_update_link_state()

Fix that by replacing O_NONBLOCK with the recv per-call option
MSG_DONTWAIT.
