Avoid possible SEGVs in select() (in unit tests) Per the POSIX definition of select(): http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009696699/functions/pselect.html "Upon successful completion, the select() function may modify the object pointed to by the timout argument." If "struct timeval" pointer is a "static const", it could potentially be allocated in a RO text segment. The kernel would then try to copy back the modified value (with the time remaining) into a read-only address and SEGV. Signed-off-by: Philip Prindeville <philipp@redfish-solutions.com> Closes: #614
