commit 4047b37122d1 ("serial: core: Prevent unsafe uart port access,
part 1") added lockdep assertion for port mutex but fails to check
if debug_locks has disabled lockdep (so lock state is no longer
reliable).

Use lockdep_assert_held() instead, which properly checks lockdep
state as well.

For tty operations which may expect uart port to have been removed
but still have other necessary work to accomplish, check for NULL
uart port; specifically uart_close(), uart_hangup() and sub-functions
(uart_shutdown() and uart_port_shutdown()).

For serial core operations not already excluded by holding port-&gt;mutex,
use reference counting to protect deferencing the state-&gt;uart_port.

Introduce helper functions, uart_port_ref() and uart_port_deref(), to
wrap uart_port access, and helper macros, uart_port_lock() and
uart_port_unlock(), to wrap combination uart_port access with uart
port lock sections.

Port removal in uart_remove_one_port() waits for reference count to
drop to zero before detaching the uart port from struct uart_state.

For functions only reading the tx circular buffer indexes (where the
uart port lock is claimed to prevent concurrent users), a NULL uart
port is simply ignored and the operation completes normally.

For functions change the tx circular buffer indexes (where the uart
port lock is claimed to prevent concurrent users), the operation is
aborted if the uart port is NULL (ie., has been detached).

uart_remove_one_port() may race with every serial core operation
requiring a valid dereference of state-&gt;uart_port. In particular,
uart_remove_one_port() may unlink the uart port concurrently with
any serial core operation that may dereference same.

Ensure safe dereference for those operations that already claim
the port-&gt;mutex, and extend that guarantee for trivial cases,
such as the ioctl handlers. Introduce the uart_port_check() helper
which asserts port-&gt;mutex is held (only when lockdep is on).

For ioctls, return -EIO as if the port has been hung up (since it has).

Replace ASYNC_INITIALIZED bit in the tty_port::flags field with
TTY_PORT_INITIALIZED bit in the tty_port::iflags field. Introduce helpers
tty_port_set_initialized() and tty_port_initialized() to abstract
atomic bit ops.

Note: the transforms for test_and_set_bit() and test_and_clear_bit()
are unnecessary as the state transitions are already mutually exclusive;
the tty lock prevents concurrent open/close/hangup.
