tty/n_hdlc: fix __might_sleep warning

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1818803

commit fc01d8c6 upstream.

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.
