Subject: [PATCH] tty: n_gsm: fix reset fifo race condition

gsmtty_write() and gsm_dlci_data_output() properly guard the fifo access.
However, gsm_dlci_close() and gsmtty_flush_buffer() modifies the fifo but
do not guard this.
Add a guard here to prevent race conditions on parallel writes to the fifo.
