Specific to M-x shell:

(add-hook 'shell-mode-hook
          (lambda ()
            (set-process-query-on-exit-flag (get-buffer-process
                                             (current-buffer))
                                            nil)))

Easily generalized from shell-mode-hook to comint-exec-hook, which covers
most interactive processes.
