4.20-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Paul Fulghum <[email protected]> commit fc01d8c61ce02c034e67378cd3e645734bc18c8c upstream. Fix __might_sleep warning[1] in tty/n_hdlc.c read due to copy_to_user call while current is TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. This is a false positive since the code path does not depend on current state remaining TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. The loop breaks out and sets TASK_RUNNING after calling copy_to_user. This patch supresses the warning by setting TASK_RUNNING before calling copy_to_user.
