The patch titled tty_io.c balance tty_ldisc_ref() has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is tty_ioc-balance-tty_ldisc_ref.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: tty_io.c balance tty_ldisc_ref() From: dcarpenter <error27@xxxxxxxxx> tty_ldisc_deref() should only be called when tty_ldisc_ref() succeeds otherwise it triggers a BUG(). There's already a function tty_ldisc_flush() that flushes properly.
