[PATCH 097/173] isdn: avoid calling tty_ldisc_flush() in atomic context

From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Mon Apr 25 2011 - 16:24:43 EST


2.6.27.59-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Tilman Schmidt <tilman@xxxxxxx>

commit bc10f96757bd6ab3721510df8defa8f21c32f974 upstream.

Remove the call to tty_ldisc_flush() from the RESULT_NO_CARRIER
branch of isdn_tty_modem_result(), as already proposed in commit
00409bb045887ec5e7b9e351bc080c38ab6bfd33.
This avoids a "sleeping function called from invalid context" BUG
when the hardware driver calls the statcallb() callback with
command==ISDN_STAT_DHUP in atomic context, which in turn calls
isdn_tty_modem_result(RESULT_NO_CARRIER, ~), and from there,
tty_ldisc_flush() which may sleep.
