Subject[177/251] virtio: console: fix raising SIGIO after port unplug
3.6.11.9-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com>

[ Upstream commit 92d3453815fbe74d539c86b60dab39ecdf01bb99 ]

SIGIO should be sent when a port gets unplugged. It should only be sent
to prcesses that have the port opened, and have asked for SIGIO to be
delivered. We were clearing out guest_connected before calling
send_sigio_to_port(), resulting in a sigio not getting sent to
processes.

Fix by setting guest_connected to false after invoking the sigio
function.
