tty_ldisc: add more limits to the @write_wakeup

In the uart_handle_cts_change(), uart_write_wakeup() is called after
we call @uart_port->ops->start_tx().

The Documentation/serial/driver tells us:
-----------------------------------------------
  start_tx(port)
	Start transmitting characters.

	Locking: port->lock taken.
	Interrupts: locally disabled.
-----------------------------------------------

So when the uart_write_wakeup() is called, the port->lock is taken by
the upper. See the following callstack:

	|_ uart_write_wakeup
	   |_ tty_wakeup
	      |_ ld->ops->write_wakeup

With the port->lock held, we call the @write_wakeup. Some implemetation of
the @write_wakeup does not notice that the port->lock is held, and it still
tries to send data with uart_write() which will try to grab the prot->lock.
A dead lock occurs, see the following log caught in the Bluetooth by uart:

--------------------------------------------------------------------

This patch adds more limits to the @write_wakeup, the one who wants to
implemet the @write_wakeup should follow the limits which avoid the deadlock.
