Subject: Can not get output of command line on SH

Hi, Al.

I can not get output of command line on SH in latest linux kernel.
I bisected, I confirmed that this problem occurred by  following commit.

-----
commit 4a9d4b024a3102fc083c925c242d98ac27b1c5f6

    switch fput to task_work_add

    ... and schedule_work() for interrupt/kernel_thread callers
    (and yes, now it *is* OK to call from interrupt).

    We are guaranteed that __fput() will be done before we return
    to userland (or exit).  Note that for fput() from a kernel
    thread we get an async behaviour; it's almost always OK, but
    sometimes you might need to have __fput() completed before
    you do anything else.  There are two mechanisms for that -
    a general barrier (flush_delayed_fput()) and explicit
    __fput_sync().  Both should be used with care (as was the
    case for fput() from kernel threads all along).  See comments
    in fs/file_table.c for details.

For example ,when I input 'ls', nothing is displayed.
However, it is outputted when 'Ctrl+C' is inputted.
I checked other CPUs, it is only SH that this problem occurs.

Paul, do you think about this?

Best regards,
  Nobuhiro
