This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.
===============
commit 3a41c5dbe8bc396a7fb16ca8739e945bb003342e upstream.
Following commits:
50e244cc79 fb: rework locking to fix lock ordering on takeover
e93a9a8687 fb: Yet another band-aid for fixing lockdep mess
054430e773 fbcon: fix locking harder
reworked locking to fix related lock ordering on takeover, and introduced console_lock
into fbmem, but it seems that the new lock sequence(fb_info->lock ---> console_lock)
is against with the one in console_callback(console_lock ---> fb_info->lock), and leads to
a potential dead lock as following:
[ 601.079000] ======================================================

other info that might help us debug this:

[ 601.079000] ---- ----
[ 601.079000] lock(console_lock);
[ 601.079000] lock(&fb_info->lock);
[ 601.079000] lock(console_lock);
[ 601.079000] lock(&fb_info->lock);
[ 601.079000]
*** DEADLOCK ***
so we reorder the lock sequence the same as it in console_callback() to
avoid this issue. And following Tomi's suggestion, fix these similar
issues all in fb subsystem.
