So in any case, this patch fixes handling of kermit termination by
pressing CTRL+C key. Simple test is to run 'loadb' and then press
CTRL+C. Other option for testing is to run 'loadb' then start kermit
transfer by ckermit, terminate ckermit transfer and then press CTRL+C.
And this patch fixes also handling of this scenario.
