Subject: [PATCH] tty: xilinx_uartps: split sysrq handling
lockdep detects the following circular locking dependency:
CPU 0 CPU 1
========================== ============================
cdns_uart_isr() printk()
uart_port_lock(port) console_lock()
cdns_uart_console_write()
if (!port->sysrq)
uart_port_lock(port)
uart_handle_break()
port->sysrq = ...
uart_handle_sysrq_char()
printk()
console_lock()
The fixed commit attempts to avoid this situation by only taking the
port lock in cdns_uart_console_write if port->sysrq unset. However, if
(as shown above) cdns_uart_console_write runs before port->sysrq is set,
then it will try to take the port lock anyway. This may result in a
deadlock.
Fix this by splitting sysrq handling into two parts. We use the prepare
helper under the port lock and defer handling until we release the lock.
Fixes: 74ea66d4ca06 ("tty: xuartps: Improve sysrq handling")
