Patch to fix samba_server rc.d script to wait for all processes to die

The rc.d/samba_server script when stopping and/or restarting samba doesn't =
wait
for _all_ smbd processes to terminate before continuing - it only wait=C2=
=B4s for
the master process. This can cause Samba (smbd) processes to core dump if a=
 new
master smbd process gets started before all the old processes has had time =
to
terminate.

With a non-busy server this rarely get noticed since it happens during samba
shutdown and only on busy servers - and for you to get the core dumps you n=
eed
to have enabled sugid-coredumps...

/etc/sysctl.conf:
  kern.corefile =3D /var/cores/%N.%P.core
  kern.sugid_coredump =3D 1

This is related to this Samba issue:
  https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D14636

The solution is to modify the rc.d/samba_server script so it waits for all =
smbd
processes to terminate, not just the master process, before continuing.

Please find enclosed a patch that implements this wait-loop.
