for our build, this is crashing at:

    circ->buf[circ->head] = c;

Looking in uart_port_startup(), it seems that circ->buf (state->xmit.buf)
protected by the "per-port mutex", which based on uart_port_check() is
state->port.mutex. Indeed, the lock acquired in uart_put_char() is
uport->lock, i.e. not the same lock.

Anyway, since the lock is not acquired, if uart_shutdown() is called, the
last chunk of that function may release state->xmit.buf before its assigned
to null, and cause the race above.

To fix it, let's lock uport->lock when allocating/deallocating
state->xmit.buf in addition to the per-port mutex.

v2: switch to locking uport->lock on allocation/deallocation instead of
    locking the per-port mutex in uart_put_char. Note that since
    uport->lock is a spin lock, we have to switch the allocation to
    GFP_ATOMIC.
v3: move the allocation outside the lock, so we can switch back to
    GFP_KERNEL
