Subject: [PATCH next] n_tty: change lock ordering in n_tty_read() (v2)
Acquire atomic_read_lock before termios_rwsem rw-lock in n_tty_read().
termios_rwsem is getting released and re-acquired, while remaining
readers are blocked on atomic_read_lock mutex, in case when process
must wait for input_available_p(), making lockdep unhappy:
