Calibre E-Book Reader Local Root exploit with race condition toggler for mounting, inotify for /etc/pam.d, and overlay modification

 * ########################################################
 *
 * Yesterday's assult mount used inotify to mount into /etc/pam.d. Today we
 * expand the attack by adding a race toggler so we can mount from non-block
 * devices.
 *
 * Enjoy.
