tty_insert_flip_string_fixed_flag() is racy against itself when called
from the ioctl(TCXONC, TCION/TCIOFF) path [1] and the flush_to_ldisc()
workqueue path [2].

The problem is that port->buf.tail->used is modified without consistent
locking; the ioctl path takes tty->atomic_write_lock, whereas the workqueue
path takes ldata->output_lock.

We cannot simply take ldata->output_lock, since that is specific to the
N_TTY line discipline.

It might seem natural to try to take port->buf.lock inside
tty_insert_flip_string_fixed_flag() and friends (where port->buf is
actually used/modified), but this creates problems for flush_to_ldisc()
which takes it before grabbing tty->ldisc_sem, o_tty->termios_rwsem,
and ldata->output_lock.

Therefore, the simplest solution for now seems to be to take
tty->atomic_write_lock inside tty_port_default_receive_buf(). This lock
is also used in the write path [3] with a consistent ordering.

The bug can result in about a dozen different crashes depending on what
exactly gets corrupted when port->buf.tail->used points outside the
buffer.

The patch passes my LOCKDEP/PROVE_LOCKING testing but more testing is
always welcome.

Found using syzkaller.
