Prashanth K e20a23b342 usb: gadget: u_serial: Avoid spinlock recursion in __gs_console_push
[ Upstream commit e599046994 ]

When serial console over USB is enabled, gs_console_connect
queues gs_console_work, where it acquires the spinlock and
queues the usb request, and this request goes to gadget layer.
Now consider a situation where gadget layer prints something
to dmesg, this will eventually call gs_console_write() which
requires cons->lock. And this causes spinlock recursion. Avoid
this by excluding usb_ep_queue from the spinlock.

 spin_lock_irqsave //needs cons->lock
 gs_console_write

 _printk
 __warn_printk
 dev_warn/pr_err

 [USB Gadget Layer]

 __gs_console_push // acquires cons->lock

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
