Samuel Thibault 640969a69c speakup: Fix clearing selection in safe context
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
[...]

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.
