Revert "drivers:tty:pty: Fix a race causing data loss on close"
This reverts commit 33d4ae98. Pierre-Louis writes: Our SOF/audio CI shows an across-the-board regression when we try v5.12-rc1, specifically on pause/resume tests with an interactive terminal running 'aplay -i' commands managed by expect to simulate the user pressing the space bar to pause/unpause. It turns out the processes are not longer killed and the audio devices remain busy (see publicly available test results listed below). git bisect points to commit 33d4ae98 ("drivers:tty:pty: Fix a race causing data loss on close"). Reverting the patch fixes the issue on all test devices. Further analysis with Corey Minyard points to a problem where a slave tty will not get a SIGHUP when the master is closed. So revert this for now: Reported-by: Pierre-Louis Bossart <pierre-louis.bossart@linux.intel.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/00154592-c5ee-aaba-956e-b265473b53bc@linux.intel.com Cc: Corey Minyard <cminyard@mvista.com> Cc: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@kernel.org> Cc: Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org>, Fixes: 33d4ae98 ("drivers:tty:pty: Fix a race causing data loss on close") Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
