Hi Ben,
JFI: I haven't checked your tree, but the same patches set contains fixes that are more important to my mind (looking at 4.9 stable tree):
- "tty: Drop tty->count on tty_reopen() failure" commit fe3241679009
You marked this as applicable to 4.6+. Is it actually applicable to older versions as well?
- "tty: Hold tty_ldisc_lock() during tty_reopen()" commit 83d817f41070 with follow-up fixup "tty: Don't hold ldisc lock in tty_reopen() if
ldisc present" commit d3736d82e816
[...]
I will include these in a later update, unless you think they are really urgent and should be added to this one.
Ben.
