[PATCH 3.2 002/125] bluetooth: hci_ldisc: fix deadlock condition

[Ben Hutchings]

3.2.61-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Felipe Balbi <balbi@xxxxxx>

commit da64c27d3c93ee9f89956b9de86c4127eb244494 upstream.

LDISCs shouldn't call tty->ops->write() from within
->write_wakeup().

->write_wakeup() is called with port lock taken and
IRQs disabled, tty->ops->write() will try to acquire
the same port lock and we will deadlock.
