speakup: Fix clearing selection in safe context
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit 640969a upstream.

speakup_cut() calls speakup_clear_selection() which calls console_lock.
Problem is: speakup_cut() is called from a keyboard interrupt
context. This would hang if speakup_cut is pressed while the console
lock is unfortunately already held.

We can however as well just defer calling clear_selection() until the
already-deferred set_selection_kernel() call.

This was spotted by the lock hardener:

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:\x0a
       CPU0
       ----
  lock(console_lock);
  <Interrupt>
    lock(console_lock);
\x0a *** DEADLOCK ***\x0a
[...]
