From: Stratos Psomadakis <pso...@grnet.gr>
Commit cdaa86a54 ("Add G_IO_HUP handler for socket chardev") exposed a bug in
the way the HMP monitor handles its command buffer. When a client closes the
connection to the monitor, tcp_chr_read() will detect the G_IO_HUP condition
and call tcp_chr_disconnect() to close the server-side connection too. Due to
the fact that monitor reads 1 byte at a time (for each tcp_chr_read()), the
monitor readline state / buffers might contain junk (i.e. a half-finished
command). Thus, without calling readline_restart() on mon->rs in
CHR_EVENT_OPEN, future HMP commands will fail.
