[ Upstream commit 79c5966cec7b148199386ef9933c31b999379065 ]

Drivers can return -ENOIOCTLCMD when an ioctl is not recognised to tell
the upper layers to continue looking for a handler.

This is not the case for the RS485 and ISO7816 ioctls whose handlers
should return -ENOTTY directly in case a serial driver does not
implement the corresponding methods.

Fixes: a5f276f10ff7 ("serial_core: Handle TIOC[GS]RS485 ioctls.")
Fixes: ad8c0eaa0a41 ("tty/serial_core: add ISO7816 infrastructure")

<title>serial_core: Check for port state when tty is in error state</title>

At the moment opening a serial device node (such as /dev/ttyS3)
succeeds even if there is no actual serial device behind it.
Reading/writing/ioctls fail as expected because the uart port is not
initialized (the type is PORT_UNKNOWN) and the TTY_IO_ERROR error state
bit is set fot the tty.

However setting line discipline does not have these checks
8250_port.c (8250 is the default choice made by univ8250_console_init()).
As the result of PORT_UNKNOWN, uart_port::iobase is NULL which
a platform translates onto some address accessing which produces a crash
like below.

This adds tty_port_initialized() to uart_set_ldisc() to prevent the crash.

<title>serial: core: fix console port-lock regression</title>

Fix the port-lock initialisation regression introduced by commit
a3cb39d258ef ("serial: core: Allow detach and attach serial device for
console") by making sure that the lock is again initialised during
console setup.

The console may be registered before the serial controller has been
probed in which case the port lock needs to be initialised during
console setup by a call to uart_set_options(). The console-detach
changes introduced a regression in several drivers by effectively
removing that initialisation by not initialising the lock when the port
is used as a console (which is always the case during console setup).

Add back the early lock initialisation and instead use a new
console-reinit flag to handle the case where a console is being
re-attached through sysfs.

The question whether the console-detach interface should have been added
in the first place is left for another discussion.

Note that the console-enabled check in uart_set_options() is not
redundant because of kgdboc, which can end up reinitialising an already
enabled console (see commit 42b6a1baa3ec ("serial_core: Don't
re-initialize a previously initialized spinlock.")).

Commit f743061a85f5 ("serial: core: Initialise spin lock before use in
uart_configure_port()") tried to work around a breakage introduced by
commit a3cb39d258ef ("serial: core: Allow detach and attach serial
device for console") by adding a second initialisation of the port lock
when registering the port.

As reported by the build robots [1], this doesn't really solve the
regression introduced by the console-detach changes and also adds a
second redundant initialisation of the lock for normal ports.

Start cleaning up this mess by removing the redundant initialisation and
making sure that the port lock is again initialised once-only for ports
that aren't already in use as a console.

As per the documentation (Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.rst),
snprintf() should not be used for formatting values returned by sysfs.

For all of the instances in serial_core.c, we know that the string will
be &lt;PAGE_SIZE in length, so just use sprintf().
