TTY: ldisc, wait for ldisc infinitely in hangup
commit 0c73c08ec73dbe080b9ec56696ee21d32754d918 upstream. For /dev/console case, we do not kill all ldisc users. It's due to redirected_tty_write test in __tty_hangup. In that case there still might be a process waiting e.g. in n_tty_read for input. We wait for such processes to disappear. The problem is that we use a timeout. After this timeout, we continue closing the ldisc and start freeing tty resources. It obviously leads to crashes when the other process is woken. So to fix this, we wait infinitely before reiniting the ldisc. (The tiocsetd remains untouched -- times out after 5s.) This is nicely reproducible with this run from shell: exec 0<>/dev/console 1<>/dev/console 2<>/dev/console and stopping a getty like: systemctl stop serial-getty@ttyS0.service The crash proper may be produced only under load or with constified timing the same as for 92f6fa09b.
