I've tried the test with this patch applied and I still got soft-lockup
on unpatched kernel, so it seems like the reproducer works fine with
these changes.

We changed the TEST_RETURN to TST_RET and TEST_ERRNO to TST_ERR a few
weeks ago, can you please update you git tree?

I wonder if we can just do SAFE_WRITE(1, ptmx, "A\n", 2) here instead?

Also the comment is a bit misleading, I was thinking for a while about
what is pts block and why do we need to avoid reading it. So maybe we
should reword it as:

/* write newline to ptmx to avoid read() on pts to block */
