Subject: [PATCH] speakup: Fix clearing selection in safe context
Date: Sun, 8 Nov 2020 00:33:10 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201107233310.7iisvaozpiqj3yvy@function> (raw)

speakup_cut() calls speakup_clear_selection() which calls console_lock.
Problem is: speakup_cut() is called from a keyboard interrupt
context. This would hang if speakup_cut is pressed while the console
lock is unfortunately already held.

We can however as well just defer calling clear_selection() until the
already-deferred set_selection_kernel() call.

This was spotted by the lock hardener:

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:\x0a
       CPU0
       ----
  lock(console_lock);
  <Interrupt>
    lock(console_lock);
\x0a *** DEADLOCK ***\x0a
[...]
