/* Wait for either the connect to complete or for an error/timeout
* to occur. NOTES: net_lockedwait will also terminate if a signal
* is received.
*
* REVISIT: This failure has been reported:
* - psock_tcp_accept() waits on net_lockedwait() below
* - The accept operation completes, the socket is in the connected
* state and psock_accept() is awakened. It cannot run,
* however, because its priority is low and so it is blocked
* from execution.
* - In the mean time, the remote host sends a
* packet which is presumeably caught in the read-ahead buffer.
* - Then the remote host closes the socket. Nothing happens on
* the target side because net_start_monitor() has not yet been
* called.
* - Then accept() finally runs, but not with a connected but
* rather with a disconnected socket. This fails when it
* attempts to start the network monitor on the disconnected
* socket below.
* - It is also impossible to read the buffered TCP data from a
* disconnected socket. The TCP recvfrom() logic would also
* need to permit reading buffered data from a disconnected
* socket.
*
* A work-around is to raise the priority of the thread that calls
* accept().
