Subject[PATCH 3.12 056/133] tty/serial: at91: fix race condition in atmel_serial_remove
Date
3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Marek Roszko <mark.roszko@gmail.com>

commit f50c995f9ebf064cea1368bf361c4e29679415b4 upstream.

The _remove callback could be called when a tasklet is scheduled. tasklet_kill
was called inside the function in order to free up any scheduled tasklets.
However it was called after uart_remove_one_port which destroys tty references
needed in the port for atmel_tasklet_func.
Simply putting the tasklet_kill at the start of the function will prevent this
conflict.
