[ Upstream commit 1b710b1b10eff9d46666064ea25f079f70bc67a8 ]

Sergey didn't like the locking order,

uart_port->lock -> tty_port->lock

uart_write (uart_port->lock)
__uart_start
pl011_start_tx
pl011_tx_chars
uart_write_wakeup
tty_port_tty_wakeup
tty_port_default
tty_port_tty_get (tty_port->lock)

but those code is so old, and I have no clue how to de-couple it after
checking other locks in the splat. There is an onging effort to make all
printk() as deferred, so until that happens, workaround it for now as a
short-term fix.

LTP: starting iogen01 (export LTPROOT; rwtest -N iogen01 -i 120s -s

WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
------------------------------------------------------
doio/49441 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff008b7cff7290 (&(&zone->lock)->rlock){..-.}, at: rmqueue+0x138/0x2050

but task is already holding lock:
60ff000822352818 (&pool->lock/1){-.-.}, at: start_flush_work+0xd8/0x3f0

which lock already depends on the new lock.

the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
