3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Peter Hurley <pe...@hurleysoftware.com> commit 1075a6e2dc7e2a96efc417b98dd98f57fdae985d upstream. With block processing of echoed output, observed output order is still required. Push completed echoes and echo commands prior to output. Introduce echo_mark echo buffer index, which tracks completed echo commands; ie., those submitted via commit_echoes but which may not have been committed. Ensure that completed echoes are output prior to subsequent terminal writes in process_echoes(). Fixes newline/prompt output order in cooked mode shell.
