'tty: Convert termios_mutex to termios_rwsem' and
'n_tty: Access termios values safely'
introduced a circular lock dependency with console_lock and
termios_rwsem.
The lockdep report [1] shows that n_tty_write() will attempt
to claim console_lock while holding the termios_rwsem, whereas
tty_do_resize() may already hold the console_lock while
claiming the termios_rwsem.
Since n_tty_write() and tty_do_resize() do not contend
over the same data -- the tty->winsize structure -- correct
the lock dependency by introducing a new lock which
specifically serializes access to tty->winsize only.
