Subject: tty: serial: 8250: don't take the trylock during oops
Git-repo: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git
Git-commit: 4326f950cf809b30e4cf840333a262578281c3e8
Patch-mainline: Queued in subsystem maintainer repository
References: SLE Realtime Extension
An oops with irqs off (panic() from irqsafe hrtimer like the watchdog
timer) will lead to a lockdep warning on each invocation and as such
never completes.
Therefore we skip the trylock in the oops case.
