Bash Version: 5.0
Patch Level: 7
Release Status: release

Description:
Sometimes bash leaves the pts with O_NONBLOCK set, and all programs
reading from stdin will get an EAGAIN:

# cat
cat: -: Resource temporarily unavailable

# strace -e read cat
read(0, 0x7f2a70511000, 131072)         = -1 EAGAIN (Resource
temporarily unavailable)
: Resource temporarily unavailable
+++ exited with 1 +++

Initially I thought it was a kernel bug, so I filed a bug on the
kernel bugzilla:

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201641

but then I tested with fcntl() that the stding had te flag set.

Repeat-By:
random after some usage

Fix:
`exec bash` resolves it
