Thanks for the update. I was thinkg about that. There is no read/write
termios_rwsem cross-locking on read path with atomic_read_lock being involved,
but the thing that stopped me is that if lockdep has a regression then I would
probably see warnings from different places, not just tty.
Feel free to ask for any help or testing (if need).
thanks,
