[ovs-dev] [PATCH] daemon: Don't imply that a normal exit from the monitor is a crash.

[Ben Pfaff]

When the monitored child is killed with SIGTERM, the monitoring process
currently logs a message like "1 crashes: pid 12345 died, killed by
signal 15 (Terminated), exiting".  This counts the SIGTERM as a crash, even
though it's intentional.

This commit changes the log message to omit the "%d crashes" part on normal
termination.
