devel: hv_vss_daemon now sports a -n flag to prevent daemonisation

[Andy Whitcroft]

We now have an official way to prevent hv_vss_daemon from deamonising by default, the new -n flag mirrors the hack we have been carrying for some time. We need to work out how to migrate to this new form whilst maintaining backwards compatibility.

This change has been made by an automated script, maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team.

[Andy Whitcroft (apw)]

Turns out that we do not check the passed parameters in older versions, so we can simply use -n in all cases and expect correct behaviour.
