tty: Move tty->closing from port lock critical section
tty->closing informs the line discipline that the hardware will be shutting down imminently, and to disable further input other than soft flow control (but to still allow additional output). However, the tty lock is the necessary lock for preventing concurrent changes to tty->closing. As shown by the call-tree audit [1] of functions that modify tty->closing, the tty lock is already held for those functions. [1] Call-tree audit of functions that modify tty->closing * does not include call tree to tty_port_close(), tty_port_close_start(), or tty_port_close_end() which is already documented in 'tty: Document locking for tty_port_close{,start,end}' that shows callers to those 3 functions hold the tty lock tty_release() tty->ops->close() --+ | __tty_hangup() | tty->ops->close() --+ | mp_close():drivers/staging/sb105x/sb_pci_mp.c dngc_tty_close():drivers/staging/dgnc/dgnc_tty.c dgap_tty_close():drivers/staging/dgap/dgap_tty.c dgrp_tty_close():drivers/staging/dgrp/dgrp_tty.c rp_close():drivers/tty/rocket.c hvsi_close():drivers/tty/hvc/hvsi.c rs_close():drivers/tty/serial/68328serial.c rs_close():drivers/tty/serial/crisv10.c uart_close():drivers/tty/serial/serial_core.c isdn_tty_close():drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_tty.c tty3215_close():drivers/s390/char/con3215.c tty_open() tty_ldisc_setup() ----+ | __tty_hangup() | tty_ldisc_hangup() ---+ | tty_set_ldisc() --------+ tty_ldisc_restore() --+ | +- tty_ldisc_open() ld->ops->open() --+ | +- n_tty_open() Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
