Subject: [ 17/52] Remove BUG_ON from n_tty_read()

3.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Stanislav Kozina <skozina@...hat.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.
