[dm-devel] [PATCH 5/7] multipathd: set DAEMON_CONFIGURE from uxlsnr thread

Commit ee01e841 had the intention to make multipathd quit if
the client socket couldn't be set up, because the unix socket
listener is vital for signal handling in multipathd.
But during startup, this condition might be lost if the main
thread doesn't wait for the unix listener to initialize.

Fixes: ee01e841 "multipathd: handle errors in uxlsnr as fatal"
