Subject: [BUG] tty: n_gsm: possible circular locking dependency detected

Hi,

We've come across the below lockdep report when using n_gsm multiplexing 
on an imx uart.

The inverted lock scenario caused by:
   1) the uart tx-ready interrupt causing the tty layer to call down 
into n_gsm, and
   2) n_gsm transmitting data, causing it to call up into the tty layer

We have about 2-3k devices running, and get the report from ~100 devices 
during a 1 hour span. But we haven't been able to reproduce locally.

The devices run 4.19.22 with my recent n_gsm patches backported.

Any hints on how to dig further are appreciated.

// Martin
