commit 0b41ce991052022c030fd868e03877700220b090 upstream.

Some UART HW has a single register combining UART_DLL/UART_DLM
(this was probably forgotten in the change that introduced the
callbacks, commit b32b19b8ffc05cbd3bf91c65e205f6a912ca15d9)

Fixes: b32b19b8ffc0 ("[SERIAL] 8250: set divisor register correctly ...")

<title>pty: make sure super_block is still valid in final /dev/tty close</title>

<id>1f55c718c290616889c04946864a13ef30f64929</id>
<content type='text'>
Considering current pty code and multiple devpts instances, it's possible
to umount a devpts file system while a program still has /dev/tty opened
pointing to a previosuly closed pty pair in that instance. In the case all
ptmx and pts/N files are closed, umount can be done. If the program closes
/dev/tty after umount is done, devpts_kill_index will use now an invalid
super_block, which was already destroyed in the umount operation after
running -&gt;kill_sb. This is another "use after free" type of issue, but now
related to the allocated super_block instance.

To avoid the problem (warning at ida_remove and potential crashes) for
this specific case, I added two functions in devpts which grabs additional
references to the super_block, which pty code now uses so it makes sure
the super block structure is still valid until pty shutdown is done.
I also moved the additional inode references to the same functions, which
also covered similar case with inode being freed before /dev/tty final
close/shutdown.

<title>pty: fix possible use after free of tty-&gt;driver_data</title>

<id>2831c89f42dcde440cfdccb9fee9f42d54bbc1ef</id>
<content type='text'>
This change fixes a bug for a corner case where we have the the last
release from a pty master/slave coming from a previously opened /dev/tty
file. When this happens, the tty-&gt;driver_data can be stale, due to all
ptmx or pts/N files having already been closed before (and thus the inode
related to these files, which tty-&gt;driver_data points to, being already
freed/destroyed).

The fix here is to keep a reference on the opened master ptmx inode.
We maintain the inode referenced until the final pty_unix98_shutdown,
and only pass this inode to devpts_kill_index.

The wait_for_xmitr() function is only used if CONFIG_CONSOLE_POLL
or CONFIG_SERIAL_OMAP_CONSOLE are set, but when both are disabled,
the compiler warns about it being unused:

drivers/tty/serial/omap-serial.c:1168:13: warning: 'wait_for_xmitr' defined but not used [-Wunused-func

We could add more #ifdefs to work around it, but adding __maybe_unused
seems nicer.

The omap-serial driver emulates RS485 delays using software timers,
but neglects to clamp the input values from the unprivileged
ioctl(TIOCSRS485). Because the software implementation busy-waits,
malicious userspace could stall the cpu for ~49 days.

Clamp the input values to &lt; 100ms.
