3.5.7.10 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ming Lei <tom.leiming@xxxxxxxxx> commit eba0e3c3a0ba7b96f01cbe997680f6a4401a0bfc upstream. Johan's 'fix use-after-free in TIOCMIWAIT' patchset[1] introduces one bug which can cause kernel hang when opening port. This patch initialized the 'port->delta_msr_wait' waitqueue head to fix the bug which is introduced in 3.9-rc4.
