The -rt patch triggers a lockdep warning for serial drivers if tty_flip_buffer_push() is called with uart_port->lock locked. This never shows up on UP kernels. Release the port lock before calling tty_flip_buffer_push() and reacquire it after the call. Similar stuff was already done for few other drivers in the past, like: commit 2389b272168ceec056ca1d8a870a97fa9c26e11a Author: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Date: Tue May 29 21:53:50 2007 +0100 [ARM] 4417/1: Serial: Fix AMBA drivers locking Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org> --- drivers/tty/serial/pnx8xxx_uart.c | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+)
