ldsem_down_read() will sleep if there is pending writer in the queue.
If the writer times out, readers in the queue should be woken up,
otherwise they may miss a chance to acquire the semaphore until the last
active reader will do ldsem_up_read().
There was a couple of reports where there was one active reader and
other readers soft locked up:
Showing all locks held in the system:
2 locks held by khungtaskd/17:
#0: (rcu_read_lock){......}, at: watchdog+0x124/0x6d1
#1: (tasklist_lock){.+.+..}, at: debug_show_all_locks+0x72/0x2d3
2 locks held by askfirst/123:
#0: (&tty->ldisc_sem){.+.+.+}, at: ldsem_down_read+0x46/0x58
#1: (&ldata->atomic_read_lock){+.+...}, at: n_tty_read+0x115/0xbe4
Prevent readers wait for active readers to release ldisc semaphore.

nr_pdflush_threads has been long deprecated and
removed, but a remnant of its glorious past is
still around in CTL_VM names enum. This patch
is a minor clean-up to that case.

sysrq_do_reset() is called in softirq context, so it cannot call
sync() directly. Instead, call orderly_reboot(), which creates a work
item to run /sbin/reboot, or do emergency_sync and restart if the
command fails.
