Duoming Zhou 219b51a6f0 net: ax25: Fix deadlock caused by skb_recv_datagram in ax25_recvmsg
The skb_recv_datagram() in ax25_recvmsg() will hold lock_sock
and block until it receives a packet from the remote. If the client
doesn`t connect to server and calls read() directly, it will not
receive any packets forever. As a result, the deadlock will happen.

The fail log caused by deadlock is shown below:

[  369.606973] INFO: task ax25_deadlock:157 blocked for more than 245 seconds.
[  369.608919] "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.

This patch replaces skb_recv_datagram() with an open-coded variant of it
releasing the socket lock before the __skb_wait_for_more_packets() call
and re-acquiring it after such call in order that other functions that
need socket lock could be executed.

what's more, the socket lock will be released only when recvmsg() will
block and that should produce nicer overall behavior.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
