[ Upstream commit 62b2caef400c1738b6d22f636c628d9f85cd4c4c ]
There is a deadlock in sa1100_set_termios(), which is shown below:
(Thread 1) | (Thread 2) | sa1100_enable_ms() sa1100_set_termios() | mod_timer() spin_lock_irqsave() //(1) | (wait a time) ... | sa1100_timeout() del_timer_sync() | spin_lock_irqsave() //(2) (wait timer to stop) | ...
We hold sport->port.lock in position (1) of thread 1 and use del_timer_sync() to wait timer to stop, but timer handler also need sport->port.lock in position (2) of thread 2. As a result, sa1100_set_termios() will block forever.
This patch moves del_timer_sync() before spin_lock_irqsave() in order to prevent the deadlock.
