[RFC RT] tty: serial: 8250: don't take the lock on OOPs

[Sebastian Andrzej Siewior]

On panic() from IRQ (for instance from the lockup detector) we will
end up in an endless loop on -RT. Each time we invoke
spin_trylock_irqsave() we will trigger the WARN_ON() in rt_mutex_trylock().
The WARN_ON() will stuff more data into the printk buffer than we can
print on one iteration and so we never end the printing loop.
