Subject[REGRESSION] "USB: use kfifo to buffer usb-generic serial writes" causes gobi_loader to hang
gobi_loader writes firmware to gobi USB devices (qcserial) via the USB 
serial layer by writing it a megabyte at a time (matching the Windows
driver behaviour). Commit 8e8dce065088833fc418bfa5fbf035cb0726c04c
breaks it - strace shows the write simply hanging. ssyrq-t says the
backtrace is:

The commit before this works fine.
