Greg Kroah-Hartman reported to me that the ktest of v4.10 locked up in an

infinite loop while doing the make mrproper. Looking into the cause I noticed
 that a recent update to the function run_command (used for running all
 shell commands, including "make mrproper") changed the internal loop to
 use the function wait_for_input. The wait_for_input uses select to look
 at two file descriptors. One is the file descriptor of the command it is
 running, the other is STDIN. The STDIN check was not checking the return
 status of the sysread call, and was also just writing a lot of data into
 syswrite without regard to the size of the data read.
 
 Changing the code to check the return status of sysread, and also to still
 process the passed in descriptor data without looping back to the select
 fixed Greg's problem.
 
 While looking at this code I also realized that the loop did not honor
 the timeout if STDIN always had input (or for some reason return error).
 this could prevent wait_for_input to timeout on the file descriptor it
 is suppose to be waiting for. That is fixed too.
