Fix two problems with KISS pseudo terminal interface.

(1)  kissattach: Error setting line discipline:
	TIOCSETD: Device or resource busy

(2)  Hang, and other resulting problems, when -p command line
	option used but there was no application reading
	from the pseudo terminal.

+ * Second, using the same bit mask for two arguments doesn't seem
+ * like a good idea because select modifies them.
+ * When I tried running it, we don't get the failure message
+ * anymore but the select never returns so we can't read data from
+ * the KISS client app.
