[PATCH] samples/sockmap: Make signal handling safer

From: SF Markus Elfring
Date: Thu Nov 09 2017 - 09:15:29 EST

Use the data type "sig_atomic_t" for the variable "running"
so that it can be safely modified by a signal handler.

Fixes: 69e8cc134bcbf0ccfcf852c400b8e6788d1d0038 ("bpf: sockmap sample program")
