Bug#198846: grep: patch for --devices=skip bug

[Bastian Kleineidam]

Package: grep
Version: 2.5.1.ds1-3
Followup-For: Bug #198846

Hi,

I found this bug highly annoying (read: fix should be in sarge ;).
A grep --devices=skip command hangs forever on reading FIFO data and
prints nothing as error.
Attached is a patch that adds the missing IS_FIFO() check.

Regards,
  Bastian
