3.19.8-ckt12 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me
know.
------------------
From: Peter Hurley <pe...@hurleysoftware.com>
commit ee0c1a65cf95230d5eb3d9de94fd2ead9a428c67 upstream.
The correct lock order is atomic_write_lock => termios_rwsem, as
established by tty_write() => n_tty_write().
Fixes: c274f6ef1c666 ("tty: Hold termios_rwsem for tcflow(TCIxxx)")
