Subject: [PATCH 5/5] fix hang when BLKTRACESETUP fails and "-o -" is used

# blktrace -o - /dev/sda /dev/sdb /dev/sdc

has to be SIGKILLed if BLKTRACESETUP fails for any or all of the devices
listed. (I simulated this by just catching one of the devices in
setup_buts(), skipping the ioctl, and doing ret++).

This seems to be because with "-o -" on the command line, use_tracer_devpaths()
sees piped_output set, so we call process_trace_bufs which ends up waiting on
(!done) and "done" is never set. i.e.

atexit(exit_tracing)
	wait_tracers
		if (use_tracer_devpaths()) // true because "-o -"
			process_trace_bufs
				while (wait_empty_entries())
					wait_empty_entries
						while (!done ... )
							<loop forever>

I think this can be avoided by just setting "done = 1" before returning
when setup_buts() fails in run_tracers().
