commit dd709e72cb934eefd44de8d9969097173fbf45dc upstream.

Commit 99492c39f39f ("earlycon: Fix __earlycon_table stride") tried to fix
__earlycon_table stride by forcing the earlycon_id struct alignment to 32
and asking the linker to 32-byte align the __earlycon_table symbol.  This
fix was based on commit 07fca0e57fca92 ("tracing: Properly align linker
defined symbols") which tried a similar fix for the tracing subsystem.

However, this fix doesn't quite work because there is no guarantee that
gcc will place structures packed into an array format.  In fact, gcc 4.9
chooses to 64-byte align these structs by inserting additional padding
between the entries because it has no clue that they are supposed to be in
an array.  If we are unlucky, the linker will assign symbol
"__earlycon_table" to a 32-byte aligned address which does not correspond
to the 64-byte aligned contents of section "__earlycon_table".

To address this same problem, the fix to the tracing system was
subsequently re-implemented using a more robust table of pointers approach
by commits:
 3d56e331b653 ("tracing: Replace syscall_meta_data struct array with pointer array")
 654986462939 ("tracepoints: Fix section alignment using pointer array")
 e4a9ea5ee7c8 ("tracing: Replace trace_event struct array with pointer array")

Let's use this same "array of pointers to structs" approach for
EARLYCON_TABLE.

<title>tty: serial: exar: Relocate sleep wake-up handling</title>

[ Upstream commit c7e1b4059075c9e8eed101d7cc5da43e95eb5e18 ]

Exar sleep wake-up handling has been done on a per-channel basis by
virtue of INT0 being accessible from each channel's address space. I
believe this was initially done out of necessity, but now that Exar
devices have their own driver, we can do things more efficiently by
registering a dedicated INT0 handler at the PCI device level.

I see this change providing the following benefits:

    1. If more than one port is active, eliminates the redundant bus
       cycles for reading INT0 on every interrupt.
    2. This note associated with hooking in the per-channel handler in
       8250_port.c is resolved:
        /* Fixme: probably not the best place for this */

commit f597fbce38d230af95384f4a04e0a13a1d0ad45d upstream.

The Nuvoton UART is almost compatible with the 8250 driver when probed
via the 8250_of driver, however it requires some extra configuration
at startup.

commit e7f3e99cb1a667d04d60d02957fbed58b50d4e5a upstream.

Do not fail on multiport cards in serial_pci_is_class_communication().

It restores behaviour for SUNIX multiport cards, that enumerated by
class and have a custom board data.

Moreover it allows users to reenumerate port-by-port from user space.

commit 714569064adee3c114a2a6490735b94abe269068 upstream.

This is a followup on 44117a1d1732 ("serial: core: mark port as
initialized after successful IRQ change").
Nikola has been using autoconfig via setserial and reported a crash
similar to what I fixed in the earlier mentioned commit. Here I do the
same fixup for the autoconfig. I wasn't sure that this is the right
approach. Nikola confirmed that it fixes his crash.

commit 7842055bfce4bf0170d0f61df8b2add8399697be upstream.

When the TTY buffers fill up to the configured maximum, a system lockup
occurs:

[  598.820128] INFO: rcu_preempt detected stalls on CPUs/tasks:
[  598.825796]  0-...!: (1 GPs behind) idle=5a6/2/0 softirq=1974/1974 fqs=1
[  598.832577]  (detected by 3, t=62517 jiffies, g=296, c=295, q=126)
[  598.838755] Task dump for CPU 0:
[  598.841977] swapper/0       R  running task        0     0      0 0x00000022
[  598.849023] Call trace:
[  598.851476]  __switch_to+0x98/0xb0
[  598.854870]            (null)

This can be prevented by doing a dummy read of the RX data register.

This issue affects both HSCIF and SCIF ports. Reported for R-Car H3 ES2.0;
reproduced and fixed on H3 ES1.1. Probably affects other R-Car platforms
as well.
