USB: serial: digi_acceleport: fix write-wakeup deadlocks
The driver must not call tty_wakeup() while holding its private lock as line disciplines are allowed to call back into write() from write_wakeup(), leading to a deadlock. Also remove the unneeded work struct that was used to defer wakeup in order to work around a possible race in ancient times (see comment about n_tty write_chan() in commit 14b54e39b412 ("USB: serial: remove changelogs and old todo entries")). Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reviewed-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org>
