BUG/MAJOR: lua: Dead lock with sockets
In some cases, when we are waiting for data and the socket
timeout expires, we have a dead lock. The Lua socket locks
the applet socket, and call for a notify. The notify
immediately executes code and try to acquire the same lock,
so ... dead lock.
stream_int_notify() cant be used because it wakeup the applet
task only if the stream have changes. The changes are forces
by Lua, but not repported on the stream.
stream_int_update_applet() cant be used because the deadlock.
So, I inconditionnaly wakeup the applet. This wake is performed
asynchronously, and will call a stream_int_notify().
This patch must be backported in 1.6, 1.7 and 1.8
