Dimitri John Ledkov 7da1d0dde1 osdep/unix/exec: Avoid atexit() handlers when child execvp() fails
The functions grub_util_exec_pipe() and grub_util_exec_pipe_stderr()
currently call execvp(). If the call fails for any reason, the child
currently calls exit(127). This in turn executes the parents
atexit() handlers from the forked child, and then the same handlers
are called again from parent. This is usually not desired, and can
lead to deadlocks, and undesired behavior. So, change the exit() calls
to _exit() calls to avoid calling atexit() handlers from child.

Fixes: e75cf4a58 (unix exec: avoid atexit handlers when child exits)

This is GRUB 2, the second version of the GRand Unified Bootloader.
GRUB 2 is rewritten from scratch to make GNU GRUB cleaner, safer, more
robust, more powerful, and more portable.

See the file NEWS for a description of recent changes to GRUB 2.

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install the
GRUB 2 data and program files.

Please visit the official web page of GRUB 2, for more information.
The URL is <http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub.html>.

More extensive documentation is available in the Info manual,
accessible using 'info grub' after building and installing GRUB 2.

There are a number of important user-visible differences from the
first version of GRUB, now known as GRUB Legacy. For a summary, please
