Subject: tty: Fix double grabbing of a spinlock
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d45eb81c3e345fabaf27ef3ab437b85c0bf9fafa;p=linux-beck.git

tty: Fix double grabbing of a spinlock

The HSO changes for kref introduced a recursive spinlock take. All
functions which call put_rxbuf_data already have serial->serial_lock
grabbed.
