3.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Stanislav Kozina <skoz...@redhat.com> commit e9490e93c1978b6669f3e993caa3189be13ce459 upstream. Change the BUG_ON to WARN_ON and return in case of tty->read_buf==NULL. We want to track a couple of long standing reports of this but at the same time we can avoid killing the box.
