Fix __might_sleep warning[1] in tty/n_hdlc.c read due to copy_to_user call while current is TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. This is a false positive since the code path does not depend on current state remaining TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE. The loop breaks out and sets TASK_RUNNING after calling copy_to_user. This patch supresses the warning by setting TASK_RUNNING before calling copy_to_user.

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.
