syzbot is reporting circular locking dependency due to calling printk() with port lock held [1]. When this problem was reported, we worried whether printk_safe context will remain available in future kernels [2], and then this problem was forgotten. But in order to utilize syzbot's resource for finding other bugs/reproducers by closing this one of top crashers, let's apply a patch which counts on availability of printk_safe context.
syzbot is also reporting same dependency due to memory allocation fault injection at tty_buffer_alloc(). Although __GFP_NOWARN cannot prevent memory allocation fault injection from calling printk(), let's use __GFP_NOWARN at tty_buffer_alloc() in addition to using printk_safe context, for generating many lines of messages due to warn_alloc() is annoying. If we want to report it, we can use pr_warn() instead.
