LDISCs shouldn't call tty->ops->write() from within

->write_wakeup() is called with port lock taken and
IRQs disabled, tty->ops->write() will try to acquire
the same port lock and we will deadlock.
I think the work queue should be placed into hci_uart_tty_wakeup() and
not hci_uart_tx_wakeup() as added by this patch.
The reason is that the kernel thread hci_uart_send_frame() calls
hci_uart_tx_wakeup() and this patch unnecessarily introduces a work
queue in the program flow of that kernel thread.
In other words, I think this patch has undesirable side-effects such as
adding latency and increased processor loading for hci_uart_send_frame().

Dean
