tty: serial: arc: drop uart_port->lock before calling tty_flip_buffer_push()
The current driver triggers a lockdep warning for if tty_flip_buffer_push() is called with uart_port->lock locked. This never shows up on UP kernels and comes up only on SMP kernels. Crash looks like this (produced with samsung.c driver): ----- [<c0014d58>] (unwind_backtrace+0x0/0xf8) from [<c0011908>] (show_stack+0x10/0x14) [<c0011908>] (show_stack+0x10/0x14) from [<c035da34>] (dump_stack+0x6c/0xac) [<c035da34>] (dump_stack+0x6c/0xac) from [<c01b59ac>] (do_raw_spin_unlock+0xc4/0xd8) [<c01b59ac>] (do_raw_spin_unlock+0xc4/0xd8) from [<c03627e4>] (_raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0xc/0) [<c03627e4>] (_raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0xc/0x38) from [<c020a1a8>] (s3c24xx_serial_rx_chars+0) [<c020a1a8>] (s3c24xx_serial_rx_chars+0x12c/0x260) from [<c020aae8>] (s3c64xx_serial_handle_irq+) [<c020aae8>] (s3c64xx_serial_handle_irq+0x48/0x60) from [<c006aaa0>] (handle_irq_event_percpu+0x) [<c006aaa0>] (handle_irq_event_percpu+0x50/0x194) from [<c006ac20>] (handle_irq_event+0x3c/0x5c) [<c006ac20>] (handle_irq_event+0x3c/0x5c) from [<c006d864>] (handle_fasteoi_irq+0x80/0x13c) [<c006d864>] (handle_fasteoi_irq+0x80/0x13c) from [<c006a4a4>] (generic_handle_irq+0x20/0x30) [<c006a4a4>] (generic_handle_irq+0x20/0x30) from [<c000f454>] (handle_IRQ+0x38/0x94) [<c000f454>] (handle_IRQ+0x38/0x94) from [<c0008538>] (gic_handle_irq+0x34/0x68) [<c0008538>] (gic_handle_irq+0x34/0x68) from [<c00123c0>] (__irq_svc+0x40/0x70) Exception stack(0xc04cdf70 to 0xc04cdfb8) df60: 00000000 00000000 0000166e 00000000 df80: c04cc000 c050278f c050278f 00000001 c04d444c 410fc0f4 c03649b0 00000000 dfa0: 00000001 c04cdfb8 c000f758 c000f75c 60070013 ffffffff [<c00123c0>] (__irq_svc+0x40/0x70) from [<c000f75c>] (arch_cpu_idle+0x28/0x30) [<c000f75c>] (arch_cpu_idle+0x28/0x30) from [<c0054888>] (cpu_startup_entry+0x5c/0x148) [<c0054888>] (cpu_startup_entry+0x5c/0x148) from [<c0497aa4>] (start_kernel+0x334/0x38c) BUG: spinlock lockup suspected on CPU#0, kworker/0:1/360 lock: s3c24xx_serial_ports+0x1d8/0x370, .magic: dead4ead, .owner: <none>/-1, .owner_cpu: -1 CPU: 0 PID: 360 Comm: kworker/0:1 Not tainted 3.11.0-rc6-next-20130819-00003-g75485f1 #2 Workqueue: events flush_to_ldisc [<c0014d58>] (unwind_backtrace+0x0/0xf8) from [<c0011908>] (show_stack+0x10/0x14) [<c0011908>] (show_stack+0x10/0x14) from [<c035da34>] (dump_stack+0x6c/0xac) [<c035da34>] (dump_stack+0x6c/0xac) from [<c01b581c>] (do_raw_spin_lock+0x100/0x17c) [<c01b581c>] (do_raw_spin_lock+0x100/0x17c) from [<c03628a0>] (_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x20/0x28) [<c03628a0>] (_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x20/0x28) from [<c0203224>] (uart_start+0x18/0x34) [<c0203224>] (uart_start+0x18/0x34) from [<c01ef890>] (__receive_buf+0x4b4/0x738) [<c01ef890>] (__receive_buf+0x4b4/0x738) from [<c01efb44>] (n_tty_receive_buf2+0x30/0x98) [<c01efb44>] (n_tty_receive_buf2+0x30/0x98) from [<c01f2ba8>] (flush_to_ldisc+0xec/0x138) [<c01f2ba8>] (flush_to_ldisc+0xec/0x138) from [<c0031af0>] (process_one_work+0xfc/0x348) [<c0031af0>] (process_one_work+0xfc/0x348) from [<c0032138>] (worker_thread+0x138/0x37c) [<c0032138>] (worker_thread+0x138/0x37c) from [<c0037a7c>] (kthread+0xa4/0xb0) [<c0037a7c>] (kthread+0xa4/0xb0) from [<c000e5f8>] (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x3c) ----- Release the port lock before calling tty_flip_buffer_push() and reacquire it after the call.
