3.19.8-ckt15 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ---8<------------------------------------------------------------ From: Peter Hurley <peter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 6d27a63caad3f13e96cf065d2d96828c2006be6b upstream. Although n_tty_check_unthrottle() has a valid ldisc reference (since the tty core gets the ldisc ref in tty_read() before calling the line discipline read() method), it does not have a valid ldisc reference to the "other" pty of a pty pair. Since getting an ldisc reference for tty->link essentially open-codes tty_wakeup(), just replace with the equivalent tty_wakeup().
