Are there any mitigation steps we can take? I've chased down some of the links looking for any, but haven't had success yet.
According to the upstream BZ 1094232, there is a patch from kernel.org:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git/commit/?h=tty-li...
The file to patch in the RHEL/CentOS kernel seems to be drivers/char/n_tty.c
If the next kernel update does not have the fix, I can add it to the centosplus kernel.
