Use a runfile presence check to control the background getfattr loop
instead of using kill -9.  This helps us to avoid the problem that
the controlling bash will print a process killed message, which wrecks
the golden output.

I saw this failure in automatic fstests runs occasionally, but could
never reproduce it manually. Thanks for fixing it!
