3.19.8-ckt18 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
---8<------------------------------------------------------------
From: Peter Hurley <peter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit f33798deecbd59a2955f40ac0ae2bc7dff54c069 upstream.
commit 9ce119f318ba ("tty: Fix GPF in flush_to_ldisc()") fixed a
GPF caused by a line discipline which does not define a receive_buf()
method.
However, the vt driver (and speakup driver also) pushes selection
data directly to the line discipline receive_buf() method via
tty_ldisc_receive_buf(). Fix the same problem in tty_ldisc_receive_buf().
