commit 736cd79f483fd7a1e0b71e6eaddf01d8d87fbbbb upstream.

So far DMA mode were activated when only number of bytes to send was
equal or greater than min_dma_size. Due to requirement that DMA transaction
buffer should be aligned to cache line size, the excessive bytes were
written to FIFO before starting DMA transaction. The problem occurred
when FIFO size were smaller than cache alignment, because writing all
excessive bytes to FIFO would fail. It happened in DMA mode when PIO
interrupts disabled, which caused driver hung.

The solution is to test if buffer is alligned to cache line size before
activating DMA mode, and if it's not, running PIO mode to align buffer
and then starting DMA transaction. In PIO mode, when interrupts are
enabled, lack of space in FIFO isn't the problem, so buffer aligning
will always finish with success.

commit 81ccb2a69f76b88295a1da9fc9484df715fe3bfa upstream.

Due to some of serial ports can have FIFO size smaller than cache line
size, and because of need to align DMA buffer address to cache line size,
it's necessary to calculate minimum number of bytes for which we want
to start DMA transaction to be at least cache line size. The simplest
way to meet this requirement is to get maximum of cache line size and
FIFO size.

commit 1d7002777a8fe8188caaa98d4a8eb4ed298fcdae upstream.

This way this device can be used with irtty-sir -
at least on Toshiba Satellite A20-S103 it is not configured by default
and needs PNP activation before it starts to respond on I/O ports.

This device has actually its own driver (ali-ircc),
but this driver seems to be non-functional for a very long time

commit 8117e347406278fd399b077add4e638cd017ae2d upstream.

Fix panic caused by a race between men_z135_intr() and men_z135_set_termios().

men_z135_intr() and men_z135_set_termios() both hold the struct uart_port::lock
spinlock, but men_z135_intr() does a spin_lock_irqsave() and
men_z135_set_termios() does a normal spin_lock(), which can lead to a deadlock
when an interrupt is called while the lock is being helt by
men_z135_set_termios().

This was discovered using a insmod, hardware looppback send/receive, rmmod
stress test.

commit 830acf9e3044d4644f91b4418ef35a2094089946 upstream.

The 8250-omap driver requires the DMA-engine driver to support the pause
command in order to properly turn off programmed RX transfer before the
driver stars manually reading from the FIFO.
The lacking support of the requirement has been discovered recently. In
order to stay safe here we disable RX-DMA completly on probe.
The rx_dma_broken assignment on probe could be removed once we working
pause function in omap-dma.

While closing, new rx data may be received after the input buffers
have been flushed but before stop_rx() halts receiving [1]. The
new data might not be processed by flush_to_ldisc() until after
uart_shutdown() and normal input processing is re-enabled (ie.,
tty-&gt;closing = 0). The race is outlined below:

CPU 0                         | CPU 1
                              |
uart_close()                  |
   tty_port_close_start()     |
      tty-&gt;closing = 1        |
      tty_ldisc_flush()       |
                              | =&gt; IRQ
                              |   while (LSR &amp; data ready)
                              |      uart_insert_char()
                              |   tty_flip_buffer_push()
                              | &lt;= EOI
   stop_rx()                  |   .
   uart_shutdown()            |   .
      free xmit.buf           |   .
   tty_port_tty_set(NULL)     |   .
   tty-&gt;closing = 0           |   .
                              | flush_to_ldisc()
                              |   n_tty_receive_buf_common()
                              |      __receive_buf()
                              |         ...
                              |         commit_echoes()
                              |            uart_flush_chars()
                              |               __uart_start()
                              | ** OOPS on port.tty deref **
   tty_ldisc_flush()          |

Input processing must be prevented from echoing (tty-&gt;closing = 1)
until _after_ the input buffers have been flushed again at the end
of uart_close().

[1] In fact, some input may actually be buffered _after_ stop_rx()
since the rx interrupt may have already triggered but not yet been
handled when stop_rx() disables rx interrupts.
