autofs-5.0.7 - dont wait forever to restart

From: Ian Kent <ikent@redhat.com>

When restarting autofs the daemon must be stopped before it is started

again if it is to function properly. At the moment the init script waits

forever which is not ok if the daemon won't exit for some reason.

So, if the daemon is still running after the stop, run stop() again, wait

a bit longer and if it still hasn't stopped kill it with a SIGKILL to clear

the way for the startup.
