80fbfb1ce6 n_tty: Access echo_* variables carefully.
commit ebec3f8f5271139df618ebdf8427e24ba102ba94 upstream.

syzbot is reporting stalls at __process_echoes() [1]. This is because
since ldata->echo_commit < ldata->echo_tail becomes true for some reason,
the discard loop is serving as almost infinite loop. This patch tries to
avoid falling into ldata->echo_commit < ldata->echo_tail situation by
making access to echo_* variables more carefully.

Since reset_buffer_flags() is called without output_lock held, it should
not touch echo_* variables. And omit a call to reset_buffer_flags() from
n_tty_open() by using vzalloc().

Since add_echo_byte() is called without output_lock held, it needs memory
barrier between storing into echo_buf[] and incrementing echo_head counter.
echo_buf() needs corresponding memory barrier before reading echo_buf[].
Lack of handling the possibility of not-yet-stored multi-byte operation
might be the reason of falling into ldata->echo_commit < ldata->echo_tail
situation, for if I do WARN_ON(ldata->echo_commit == tail + 1) prior to
echo_buf(ldata, tail + 1), the WARN_ON() fires.

Also, explicitly masking with buffer for the former "while" loop, and
use ldata->echo_commit > tail for the latter "while" loop.

a1f75c3f3a n_tty: Fix stall at n_tty_receive_char_special().
commit 3d63b7e4ae0dc5e02d28ddd2fa1f945defc68d81 upstream.

syzbot is reporting stalls at n_tty_receive_char_special() [1]. This is
because comparison is not working as expected since ldata->read_head can
change at any moment. Mitigate this by explicitly masking with buffer size
when checking condition for "while" loops.

12ed237ccc tty: make n_tty_read() always abort if hangup is in progress
commit 28b0f8a6962a24ed21737578f3b1b07424635c9e upstream.

A tty is hung up by __tty_hangup() setting file->f_op to
hung_up_tty_fops, which is skipped on ttys whose write operation isn't
tty_write().  This means that, for example, /dev/console whose write
op is redirected_tty_write() is never actually marked hung up.

Because n_tty_read() uses the hung up status to decide whether to
abort the waiting readers, the lack of hung-up marking can lead to the
following scenario.

 1. A session contains two processes.  The leader and its child.  The
    child ignores SIGHUP.

 2. The leader exits and starts disassociating from the controlling
    terminal (/dev/console).

 3. __tty_hangup() skips setting f_op to hung_up_tty_fops.

 4. SIGHUP is delivered and ignored.

 5. tty_ldisc_hangup() is invoked.  It wakes up the waits which should
    clear the read lockers of tty->ldisc_sem.

 6. The reader wakes up but because tty_hung_up_p() is false, it
    doesn't abort and goes back to sleep while read-holding
    tty->ldisc_sem.

 7. The leader progresses to tty_ldisc_lock() in tty_ldisc_hangup()
    and is now stuck in D sleep indefinitely waiting for
    tty->ldisc_sem.

The following is Alan's explanation on why some ttys aren't hung up.

 http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171101170908.6ad08580@alans-desktop

 1. It broke the serial consoles because they would hang up and close
    down the hardware. With tty_port that *should* be fixable properly
    for any cases remaining.

 2. The console layer was (and still is) completely broken and doens't
    refcount properly. So if you turn on console hangups it breaks (as
    indeed does freeing consoles and half a dozen other things).

As neither can be fixed quickly, this patch works around the problem
by introducing a new flag, TTY_HUPPING, which is used solely to tell
n_tty_read() that hang-up is in progress for the console and the
readers should be aborted regardless of the hung-up status of the
device.

The following is a sample hung task warning caused by this issue.

2e38839225 n_tty: fix EXTPROC vs ICANON interaction with TIOCINQ (aka FIONREAD)
commit 966031f340185eddd05affcf72b740549f056348 upstream.

We added support for EXTPROC back in 2010 in commit 26df6d1340 ("tty:
Add EXTPROC support for LINEMODE") and the intent was to allow it to
override some (all?) ICANON behavior.  Quoting from that original commit
message:

         There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC.
         When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver
         are disabled.  Input line editing, character echo, and mapping
         of signals are all disabled.  This allows the telnetd to turn
         off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of
         what state the user wants the terminal to be in.

but the problem turns out that "several aspects of the terminal driver
are disabled" is a bit ambiguous, and you can really confuse the n_tty
layer by setting EXTPROC and then causing some of the ICANON invariants
to no longer be maintained.

This fixes at least one such case (TIOCINQ) becoming unhappy because of
the confusion over whether ICANON really means ICANON when EXTPROC is set.

This basically makes TIOCINQ match the case of read: if EXTPROC is set,
we ignore ICANON.  Also, make sure to reset the ICANON state ie EXTPROC
changes, not just if ICANON changes.

71378785b6 Fix OpenSSH pty regression on close
commit 0f40fbbcc34e093255a2b2d70b6b0fb48c3f39aa upstream.

OpenSSH expects the (non-blocking) read() of pty master to return
EAGAIN only if it has received all of the slave-side output after
it has received SIGCHLD. This used to work on pre-3.12 kernels.

This fix effectively forces non-blocking read() and poll() to
block for parallel i/o to complete for all ttys. It also unwinds
these changes:

1) f8747d4a46
   tty: Fix pty master read() after slave closes

2) 52bce7f8d4
   pty, n_tty: Simplify input processing on final close

cccd9546e9 n_tty: Fix unsafe reference to "other" ldisc
commit 6d27a63caad3f13e96cf065d2d96828c2006be6b upstream.

Although n_tty_check_unthrottle() has a valid ldisc reference (since
the tty core gets the ldisc ref in tty_read() before calling the line
discipline read() method), it does not have a valid ldisc reference to
the "other" pty of a pty pair. Since getting an ldisc reference for
tty->link essentially open-codes tty_wakeup(), just replace with the
equivalent tty_wakeup().

ac8f3bf883 n_tty: Fix poll() after buffer-limited eof push read
commit 40d5e0905a ("n_tty: Fix EOF push handling") fixed EOF push
for reads. However, that approach still allows a condition mismatch
between poll() and read(), where poll() returns POLLIN but read()
blocks. This state can happen when a previous read() returned because
the user buffer was full and the next character was an EOF not at the
beginning of the line. While the next read() will properly identify
the condition and advance the read buffer tail without improperly
indicating an EOF file condition (ie., read() will not mistakenly
return 0), poll() will mistakenly indicate POLLIN.

Although a possible solution would be to peek at the input buffer
in n_tty_poll(), the better solution in this patch is to eat the
EOF during the previous read() (ie., fix the problem by eliminating
the condition).

The current canon line buffer copy limits the scan for next end-of-line
to the smaller of either,
   a. the remaining user buffer size
   b. completed lines in the input buffer
When the remaining user buffer size is exactly one less than the
end-of-line marked by EOF push, the EOF is not scanned nor skipped
but left for subsequent reads. In the example below, the scan
index 'eol' has stopped at the EOF because it is past the scan
limit of 5 (not because it has found the next set bit in read_flags)

   user buffer [*nr = 5]    _ _ _ _ _

   read_flags               0 0 0 0 0   1
   input buffer             h e l l o [EOF]
                            ^           ^
                           /           /
                         tail        eol

   result: found = 0, tail += 5, *nr += 5

Instead, allow the scan to peek ahead 1 byte (while still limiting the
scan to completed lines in the input buffer). For the example above,

   result: found = 1, tail += 6, *nr += 5

Because the scan limit is now bumped +1 byte, when the scan is
completed, the tail advance and the user buffer copy limit is
re-clamped to *nr when EOF is _not_ found.

b3868e20f4 n_tty: Remove reader wakeups for TTY_BREAK/TTY_PARITY chars
Waking the reader immediately upon receipt of TTY_BREAK or TTY_PARITY
chars has no effect on the outcome of read():
1. Only non-canonical/EXTPROC mode applies since canonical mode
   will not return data until a line termination is received anyway
2. EXTPROC mode - the reader will always be woken by the input worker
3. Non-canonical modes
   a. MIN == 0, TIME == 0
   b. MIN == 0, TIME > 0
   c. MIN > 0, TIME > 0
      minimum_to_wake is always 1 in these modes so the reader will always
      be woken by the input worker
   d. MIN > 0, TIME == 0
      although the reader will not be woken by the input worker unless the
      minimum data is received, the reader would not otherwise have
      returned the received data

e81107d4c6 tty: fix stall caused by missing memory barrier in drivers/tty/n_tty.c
My colleague ran into a program stall on a x86_64 server, where
n_tty_read() was waiting for data even if there was data in the buffer
in the pty.  kernel stack for the stuck process looks like below.

 #9 [ffff88303d107f50] entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath at ffffffff815c86d7

There seems to be two problems causing this issue.

First, in drivers/tty/n_tty.c, __receive_buf() stores the data and
updates ldata->commit_head using smp_store_release() and then checks
the wait queue using waitqueue_active().  However, since there is no
memory barrier, __receive_buf() could return without calling
wake_up_interactive_poll(), and at the same time, n_tty_read() could
start to wait in wait_woken() as in the following chart.

        __receive_buf()                         n_tty_read()
------------------------------------------------------------------------
if (waitqueue_active(&tty->read_wait))
/* Memory operations issued after the
   RELEASE may be completed before the
   RELEASE operation has completed */
                                        add_wait_queue(&tty->read_wait, &wait);
                                        ...
                                        if (!input_available_p(tty, 0)) {
smp_store_release(&ldata->commit_head,
                  ldata->read_head);
                                        ...
                                        timeout = wait_woken(&wait,
                                          TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, timeout);
------------------------------------------------------------------------

The second problem is that n_tty_read() also lacks a memory barrier
call and could also cause __receive_buf() to return without calling
wake_up_interactive_poll(), and n_tty_read() to wait in wait_woken()
as in the chart below.

        __receive_buf()                         n_tty_read()
------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                        spin_lock_irqsave(&q->lock, flags);
                                        /* from add_wait_queue() */
                                        ...
                                        if (!input_available_p(tty, 0)) {
                                        /* Memory operations issued after the
                                           RELEASE may be completed before the
                                           RELEASE operation has completed */
smp_store_release(&ldata->commit_head,
                  ldata->read_head);
if (waitqueue_active(&tty->read_wait))
                                        __add_wait_queue(q, wait);
                                        spin_unlock_irqrestore(&q->lock,flags);
                                        /* from add_wait_queue() */
                                        ...
                                        timeout = wait_woken(&wait,
                                          TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE, timeout);
------------------------------------------------------------------------

There are also other places in drivers/tty/n_tty.c which have similar
calls to waitqueue_active(), so instead of adding many memory barrier
calls, this patch simply removes the call to waitqueue_active(),
leaving just wake_up*() behind.

This fixes both problems because, even though the memory access before
or after the spinlocks in both wake_up*() and add_wait_queue() can
sneak into the critical section, it cannot go past it and the critical
section assures that they will be serialized (please see "INTER-CPU
ACQUIRING BARRIER EFFECTS" in Documentation/memory-barriers.txt for a
better explanation).  Moreover, the resulting code is much simpler.

Latency measurement using a ping-pong test over a pty doesn't show any
visible performance drop.

1a48632ffe pty: Fix input race when closing
A read() from a pty master may mistakenly indicate EOF (errno == -EIO)
after the pty slave has closed, even though input data remains to be read.
For example,

       pty slave       |        input worker        |    pty master
                       |                            |

  schedule worker  --->|                            |     .
                       |---> flush_to_ldisc()       |     .
pty_close()            |       fill read buffer     |     .
  wait for worker      |       wakeup reader    --->|     .
                       |       read buffer full?    |---> input avail ? yes
                       |<---   yes - exit worker    |     copy 4096 bytes to user
  TTY_OTHER_CLOSED <---|                            |<--- kick worker
                       |                            |

		                **** New read() before worker starts ****

                       |                            |   n_tty_read()
                       |                            |     input avail? no

                       |                            |     return -EIO

Several conditions are required to trigger this race:
1. the ldisc read buffer must become full so the input worker exits
2. the read() count parameter must be >= 4096 so the ldisc read buffer
   is empty
3. the subsequent read() occurs before the kicked worker has processed
   more input

However, the underlying cause of the race is that data is pipelined, while
tty state is not; ie., data already written by the pty slave end is not
yet visible to the pty master end, but state changes by the pty slave end
are visible to the pty master end immediately.

Pipeline the TTY_OTHER_CLOSED state through input worker to the reader.
1. Introduce TTY_OTHER_DONE which is set by the input worker when
   TTY_OTHER_CLOSED is set and either the input buffers are flushed or
   input processing has completed. Readers/polls are woken when
   TTY_OTHER_DONE is set.
2. Reader/poll checks TTY_OTHER_DONE instead of TTY_OTHER_CLOSED.
3. A new input worker is started from pty_close() after setting
   TTY_OTHER_CLOSED, which ensures the TTY_OTHER_DONE state will be
   set if the last input worker is already finished (or just about to
   exit).

Remove tty_flush_to_ldisc(); no in-tree callers.

d2b6f44779 n_tty: Fix signal handling flushes
BRKINT and ISIG requires input and output flush when a signal char
is received. However, the order of operations is significant since
parallel i/o may be ongoing.

Merge the signal handling for BRKINT with ISIG handling.

Process the signal first. This ensures any ongoing i/o is aborted;
without this, a waiting writer may continue writing after the flush
occurs and after the signal char has been echoed.

Write lock the termios_rwsem, which excludes parallel writers from
pushing new i/o until after the output buffers are flushed; claiming
the write lock is necessary anyway to exclude parallel readers while
the read buffer is flushed.

Subclass the termios_rwsem for ptys since the slave pty performing
the flush may appear to reorder the termios_rwsem->tty buffer lock
lock order; adding annotation clarifies that
  slave tty_buffer lock-> slave termios_rwsem -> master tty_buffer lock
is a valid lock order.

Flush the echo buffer. In this context, the echo buffer is 'output'.
Otherwise, the output will appear discontinuous because the output buffer
was cleared which contains older output than the echo buffer.

Open-code the read buffer flush since the input worker does not need
kicking (this is the input worker).

fb5ef9e7da n_tty: Fix read buffer overwrite when no newline
In canon mode, the read buffer head will advance over the buffer tail
if the input > 4095 bytes without receiving a line termination char.

Discard additional input until a line termination is received.
Before evaluating for overflow, the 'room' value is normalized for
I_PARMRK and 1 byte is reserved for line termination (even in !icanon
mode, in case the mode is switched). The following table shows the
transform:

 actual buffer |  'room' value before overflow calc
  space avail  |    !I_PARMRK    |    I_PARMRK
 --------------------------------------------------
      0        |       -1        |       -1
      1        |        0        |        0
      2        |        1        |        0
      3        |        2        |        0
      4+       |        3        |        1

When !icanon or when icanon and the read buffer contains newlines,
normalized 'room' values of -1 and 0 are clamped to 0, and
'overflow' is 0, so read_head is not adjusted and the input i/o loop
exits (setting no_room if called from flush_to_ldisc()). No input
is discarded since the reader does have input available to read
which ensures forward progress.

When icanon and the read buffer does not contain newlines and the
normalized 'room' value is 0, then overflow and room are reset to 1,
so that the i/o loop will process the next input char normally
(except for parity errors which are ignored). Thus, erasures, signalling
chars, 7-bit mode, etc. will continue to be handled properly.

If the input char processed was not a line termination char, then
the canon_head index will not have advanced, so the normalized 'room'
value will now be -1 and 'overflow' will be set, which indicates the
read_head can safely be reset, effectively erasing the last char
processed.

If the input char processed was a line termination, then the
canon_head index will have advanced, so 'overflow' is cleared to 0,
the read_head is not reset, and 'room' is cleared to 0, which exits
the i/o loop (because the reader now have input available to read
which ensures forward progress).

Note that it is possible for a line termination to be received, and
for the reader to copy the line to the user buffer before the
input i/o loop is ready to process the next input char. This is
why the i/o loop recomputes the room/overflow state with every
input char while handling overflow.

Finally, if the input data was processed without receiving
a line termination (so that overflow is still set), the pty
driver must receive a write wakeup. A pty writer may be waiting
to write more data in n_tty_write() but without unthrottling
here that wakeup will not arrive, and forward progress will halt.
(Normally, the pty writer is woken when the reader reads data out
of the buffer and more space become available).

06c49f9fa3 n_tty: Fix PARMRK over-throttling
If PARMRK is enabled, the available read buffer space computation is
overly-pessimistic, which results in severely throttled i/o, even
in the absence of parity errors. For example, if the 4k read buffer
contains 1k processed data, the input worker will compute available
space of 333 bytes, despite 3k being available. At 1365 chars of
processed data, 0 space available is computed.

*Divide remaining space* by 3, truncating down (if left == 2, left = 0).

Add commit_head buffer index, which the producer-side publishes
after input processing in non-canon mode. This ensures the consumer-side

data is written before the buffer index is advanced). Fix consumer-side
uses of read_cnt() to use commit_head instead.

Add required memory barriers to the tail index to guarantee
the consumer-side has completed the loads before the producer-side
begins writing new data. Open-code the producer-side receive_room()
into the i/o loop.

Remove no-longer-referenced receive_room().

2c5dc4641c n_tty: Eliminate receive_room() from consumer/exclusive paths
The input worker never reschedules itself; it only processes input until
either there is no more input or the read buffer is full. So the reader
is responsible for restarting the input worker only if the read buffer
was previously full (no_room == 1) _and_ space is now available to process
more input because the reader has consumed data from the read buffer.

However, computing the actual space available is not required to determine
if the reader has consumed data from the read buffer. This condition is
evaluated in 5 situations, each of which the space avail is already known:
1. n_tty_flush_buffer() - the read buffer is empty; kick the worker
2. n_tty_set_termios() - no data has been consumed; do not kick the worker
       (although it may have kicked the reader so data _will be_ consumed)
3. n_tty_check_unthrottle - avail space > 3968; kick the worker
4. n_tty_read, before leaving - only kick the worker if the reader has
       moved the tail. This prevents unnecessarily kicking the worker
       when timeout-style reading is used.
5. n_tty_read, before sleeping - although it is possible for the read
       buffer to be full and input_available_p() to be false, this can
       only happen when the input worker is racing the reader, in which
       case the reader will have been woken and won't sleep.

Rename n_tty_set_room() to n_tty_kick_worker() to reflect what the
function actually does.

8bfbe2de76 n_tty: Fix read_buf race condition, increment read_head after pushing data
Commit 19e2ad6a09 ("n_tty: Remove overflow
tests from receive_buf() path") moved the increment of read_head into
the arguments list of read_buf_addr(). Function calls represent a
sequence point in C. Therefore read_head is incremented before the
character c is placed in the buffer. Since the circular read buffer is
a lock-less design since commit 6d76bd2618
("n_tty: Make N_TTY ldisc receive path lockless"), this creates a race
condition that leads to communication errors.

This patch modifies the code to increment read_head _after_ the data
is placed in the buffer and thus fixes the race for non-SMP machines.
To fix the problem for SMP machines, memory barriers must be added in
a separate patch.

problem in case of n_tty_read, but the problem still exists for n_tty_poll.
This can be seen by running 'for ((i=0; i<100;i++));do ./test.py ;done'
where test.py is:

import os, select, pty

(pid, pty_fd) = pty.fork()

if pid == 0:
   os.write(1, 'This string should be received by parent')
else:
   poller = select.epoll()
   poller.register( pty_fd, select.EPOLLIN )
   ready = poller.poll( 1 * 1000 )
   for fd, events in ready:
      if not events & select.EPOLLIN:
         print 'missed POLLIN event'
      else:
         print os.read(fd, 100)
   poller.close()

The string from the slave is missed several times.
This patch takes the same approach as the fix for read and special cases
this condition for poll.
Tested on 3.16.

52bce7f8d4 pty, n_tty: Simplify input processing on final close
When releasing one end of a pty pair, that end may just have written
to the other, which the input processing worker, flush_to_ldisc(), is
still working on but has not completed the copy to the other end's
read buffer. So input may not appear to be available to a waiting
reader but yet TTY_OTHER_CLOSED is now observed. The n_tty line
discipline has worked around this by waiting for input processing
to complete and then re-checking if input is available before
exiting with -EIO.

Since the tty/ldisc lock reordering, the wait for input processing
to complete can now occur during final close before setting
TTY_OTHER_CLOSED. In this way, a waiting reader is guaranteed to
see input available (if any) before observing TTY_OTHER_CLOSED.

1aa1bf1115 tty: Fix missed wakeup from packet mode status update
The pty master read() can miss the wake up for a packet mode
status change. For example,

CPU 0                                   | CPU 1
n_tty_read()                            | n_tty_packet_mode_flush()
  ...                                   |   .
  if (packet & link->ctrl_status) {     |   .
    /* no new ctrl_status ATM */        |   .
                                        |   spin_lock
                                        |     ctrl_status |= TIOCPKT_FLUSHREAD
                                        |   spin_unlock
                                        |   wake_up(link->read_wait)
  }                                     |
  set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) |
  ...                                   |

The pty master read() will now sleep (assuming there is no input) having
missed the read_wait wakeup.

Set the task state before the condition test.

54e8e5fcaa pty: Don't claim slave's ctrl_lock for master's packet mode
The slave's ctrl_lock serializes updates to the ctrl_status field
only, whereas the master's ctrl_lock serializes updates to the
packet mode enable (ie., the master does not have ctrl_status and
the slave does not have packet mode). Thus, claiming the slave's
ctrl_lock to access ->packet is useless.

Unlocked reads of ->packet are already smp-safe.

97d9e28d1a sched, tty: Deal with nested sleeps
n_tty_{read,write} are wait loops with sleeps in. Wait loops rely on
task_struct::state and sleeps do too, since that's the only means of
actually sleeping. Therefore the nested sleeps destroy the wait loop
state.

Fix this by using the new woken_wake_function and wait_woken() stuff,
which registers wakeups in wait and thereby allows shrinking the
task_state::state changes to the actual sleep part.

57087d5154 tty: Fix spurious poll() wakeups
When the N_TTY line discipline receives data and wakes readers to
process the input, polling writers are also mistakenly woken. This
is because, although readers and writers are differentiated by
different wait queues (tty->read_wait & tty->write_wait), both
wait queues are polled together. Thus, reader wakeups without poll
flags still cause poll(POLLOUT) to wakeup.

For received data, wakeup readers with POLLIN. Preserve the
unspecific wakeup in n_tty_packet_mode_flush(), as this action
should flag both POLLIN and POLLOUT.

Fixes epoll_wait() for edge-triggered EPOLLOUT.

66528f9066 tty: Correct INPCK handling
If INPCK is not set, input parity detection should be disabled. This means
parity errors should not be received from the tty driver, and the data
received should be treated normally.

SUS v3, 11.2.2, General Terminal Interface - Input Modes, states:
  "If INPCK is set, input parity checking shall be enabled. If INPCK is
   not set, input parity checking shall be disabled, allowing output parity
   generation without input parity errors. Note that whether input parity
   checking is enabled or disabled is independent of whether parity detection
   is enabled or disabled (see Control Modes). If parity detection is enabled
   but input parity checking is disabled, the hardware to which the terminal
   is connected shall recognize the parity bit, but the terminal special file
   shall not check whether or not this bit is correctly set."

Ignore parity errors reported by the tty driver when INPCK is not set, and
handle the received data normally.

4291086b1f n_tty: Fix n_tty_write crash when echoing in raw mode
The tty atomic_write_lock does not provide an exclusion guarantee for
the tty driver if the termios settings are LECHO & !OPOST.  And since
it is unexpected and not allowed to call TTY buffer helpers like
tty_insert_flip_string concurrently, this may lead to crashes when
concurrect writers call pty_write. In that case the following two
writers:
* the ECHOing from a workqueue and
* pty_write from the process
race and can overflow the corresponding TTY buffer like follows.

If we look into tty_insert_flip_string_fixed_flag, there is:
  int space = __tty_buffer_request_room(port, goal, flags);
  struct tty_buffer *tb = port->buf.tail;
  ...
  memcpy(char_buf_ptr(tb, tb->used), chars, space);
  ...
  tb->used += space;

so the race of the two can result in something like this:
              A                                B
__tty_buffer_request_room
                                  __tty_buffer_request_room
memcpy(buf(tb->used), ...)
tb->used += space;
                                  memcpy(buf(tb->used), ...) ->BOOM

B's memcpy is past the tty_buffer due to the previous A's tb->used
increment.

Since the N_TTY line discipline input processing can output
concurrently with a tty write, obtain the N_TTY ldisc output_lock to
serialize echo output with normal tty writes.  This ensures the tty
buffer helper tty_insert_flip_string is not called concurrently and
everything is fine.

Note that this is nicely reproducible by an ordinary user using
forkpty and some setup around that (raw termios + ECHO). And it is
present in kernels at least after commit
d945cb9cce (pty: Rework the pty layer to
use the normal buffering logic) in 2.6.31-rc3.

js: add more info to the commit log
js: switch to bool
js: lock unconditionally
js: lock only the tty->ops->write call
