[Bug 903993] Re: Don't hang waiting for input from commands

[Clint Byrum]

This makes sense to me. Its simpler even than you suggest. I see no good
reason that cloud-init ever should read from stdin, so it should
probably just re-open stdin as /dev/null. Any program that hangs waiting
for input from a non tty like /dev/null is doing things wrong, or is
being invoked incorrectly.

I don't see this as High though, as it can be worked around by not
running programs that wait for input from stdin. Dropping to Medium, and
forwarding to cloud-init upstream project.
