Subject[patch] TTY/n_gsm: potential double lock
In gsm_dlci_data_kick() we call gsm_dlci_data_sweep() with the
"gsm->tx_lock" held so we can't lock it again inside
gsm_dlci_data_sweep(). I removed that lock from and added one to
gsmld_write_wakeup() instead. The sweep function is only called from
those two places.
