3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 28a821c306889b9f2c3fff49abedc9b2c743eb73 upstream. This function is largely a duplicate of paste_selection() in drivers/tty/vt/selection.c, but with its own selection state. The speakup selection mechanism should really be merged with vt. For now, apply the changes from 'TTY: vt, fix paste_selection ldisc handling', 'tty: Make ldisc input flow control concurrency-friendly', and 'tty: Fix unsafe vt paste_selection()'.
