Commit ff1fedb9f2e8 ("usterr: make error reporting functions signal safe")
changed the logging printout mechanism to use patient_write() to a file
descriptor to ensure signal-safety of the ERR() logging mechanism.
However, the fflush(stderr) was left in place, although it was useless.
Unfortunately, fflush() is not async-signal-safe.

Fix this by removing this fflush() call.
