commit fe32416790093b31364c08395727de17ec96ace1 upstream.

In case of tty_ldisc_reinit() failure, tty-&gt;count should be decremented
back, otherwise we will never release_tty().
Tetsuo reported that it fixes noisy warnings on tty release like:
  pts pts4033: tty_release: tty-&gt;count(10529) != (#fd's(7) + #kopen's(0))

Fixes: commit 892d1fa7eaae ("tty: Destroy ldisc instance on hangup")

commit e0bf2d4982fe7d9ddaf550dd023803ea286f47fc upstream.

Apparently, this driver (or the hardware) does not support character
length settings. It's apparently running in 8-bit mode, but it makes
userspace believe it's in 5-bit mode. That makes tcsetattr with CS8
incorrectly fail, breaking e.g. getty from busybox, thus the login shell
on ttyMVx.

Fix by hard-wiring CS8 into c_cflag.

commit 7e620984b62532783912312e334f3c48cdacbd5d upstream.

Back in 2015 when irda was dropped from the driver imx1 was broken. This
change reintroduces the support for the third interrupt of the UART.

commit 3216c622a24b0ebb9c159a8d1daf7f17a106b3f5 upstream.

The function tty_port_tty_get() gets a reference to the tty. Since
the code is not using tty_port_tty_set(), the reference is kept
even after closing the tty.

Avoid using tty_port_tty_get() by directly access the tty instance.
Since lpuart_start_rx_dma() is called from the .startup() and
.set_termios() callback, it is safe to assume the tty instance is
valid.

commit e97267cb4d1ee01ca0929638ec0fcbb0904f903d upstream.

vsa.console is indirectly controlled by user-space, hence leading to
a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability.

This issue was detected with the help of Smatch:

drivers/tty/vt/vt_ioctl.c:711 vt_ioctl() warn: potential spectre issue
'vc_cons' [r]

Fix this by sanitizing vsa.console before using it to index vc_cons

Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is
to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be
completed with a dependent load/store [1].

Looking in uart_port_startup(), it seems that circ-&gt;buf (state-&gt;xmit.buf)

state-&gt;port.mutex. Indeed, the lock acquired in uart_put_char() is
uport-&gt;lock, i.e. not the same lock.

Anyway, since the lock is not acquired, if uart_shutdown() is called, the
last chunk of that function may release state-&gt;xmit.buf before its assigned
to null, and cause the race above.

To fix it, let's lock uport-&gt;lock when allocating/deallocating
state-&gt;xmit.buf in addition to the per-port mutex.

v2: switch to locking uport-&gt;lock on allocation/deallocation instead of
    locking the per-port mutex in uart_put_char. Note that since
    uport-&gt;lock is a spin lock, we have to switch the allocation to
    GFP_ATOMIC.
