Summary:                    syslogd deadlock when logs in IPC buffer and MARK is
on
Description: 
Syslogd can deadlocks that causes hanging of all applications which use
syslog

This happens if syslogd is alarmed to make MARK while writing to IPC
buffer:
semaphores are down but do_mark rouitine tries to down they again.
