[erlang-patches] fix erl_interface crash

[Wei Cao]

Fix a crash in erl_interface.

erl_interface use linux select() to get notified on socket events, which
works when fd is less than 1024.

however, when fd is larger than 1024, the fd_set structure on stack gets
corrupted and the process crashes soon,

this is possible when there are lots of connections kept or the process
keeps creating new connect and closing it.
