I bet this is: BUG_ON(rt_mutex_owner(lock) == self);

By some definition of works. It works w/o RT_FULL because locks are
NOPs on uniprocessor, except you enable lock debugging.

This is a classic recursive dead lock. If you enable
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING, then you should see the same issue even on a
completely unpatched mainline kernel.

No, wont help.

The problem is:

mpc52xx_uart_int()

  lock(port->lock);

    mpc52xx_psc_handle_irq()

      mpc52xx_uart_int_tx_chars()

        uart_write_wakeup()

          tty_wakeup()

            hci_uart_tx_wakeup()

              len = tty->ops->write(tty, skb->data, skb->len);

	      The associated write function is uart_write

	      uart_write()

		lock(port->lock)  --> deadlock

I have no idea how that bluetooth "uart" gets connected to the
physical uart, but the backtrace is pretty obvious. What are you doing
to reproduce this?
