@Tom Sounds like a winner to me!  I've submitted the patch to our process 
pipeline:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2019-October/105155.html

A post will appear here once it lands in a production Bionic kernel
(most likely in our next three-week cycle, around 18-Nov).

Thanks again for doing the leg-work on this!

Title:
  UIO: mutex used in interrupt handler causes crash

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in linux source package in Bionic:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Running:
  Bionic Beaver
  Ubuntu 4.15.0-62.69-generic 4.15.18

  Problem since: Ubuntu-4.15.0-59.66

  In commit 725bbc87 on 2/13/2019 in uio.c a mutex_lock was added to
  uio_interrupt.  This results in a "scheduling while atomic" error if
  someone else owns the mutex at the time it is invoked.

  The following commit in the kernel mainline appears to fix this issue:
