Poll() event handling introduced in 7.4 may leave a zombie #604

Description

@olofhagsand

In 7.4 the event handling was changed from select to poll to allow for more than 1024 file descriptors.
However, killing the restconf daemon may in some cases leave the restconf daemon in a zombie state.
The reason is that the backend does not properly wait for a SIGCHLD.

Workaround: (re)start the restconf daemon.
