36ba782e96 tty: split the lock up a bit further
The tty count sanity check may need the BKL, that isn't clear. However it
is clear that the count use of the lock is internal and independant of the
bigger use of the lock.

Furthermore the file list locking is also separately locked already

e8c62103fd tty: moxa: split open lock
moxa_openlock is used for several situations where we want to handle the
case of an ioctl that crosses many ports (not just the open tty), and also
cases where an open races a deinit (eg a pci unplug) and we hangup a port
before we can cope with that.

The non open race cases can use the moxa_lock spinlock. This simplifies sorting
out the remaining mess.

a808ac0c4a tty: moxa: Locking clean up
- The open lock is needed to fix up the case of a board reset occuring during
  tty open but too early for a sane hangup response.
- The lock can however got for other cases
- Use the port mutex for get/setserial
- Fix up the confused lack of locking on the THROTTLE and other bits in the

2493c0c166 tty: isicom: fix deadlock on shutdown
Alexander Strakh <strakh@ispras.ru> reported

	KERNEL_VERSION: 2.6.31
	DESCRIBE:
Driver drivers/char/isicom.c might sleep in atomic  context, because it
calls 
tty_port_xmit_buf under spin_lock.

./drivers/char/isicom.c:
1307 static void isicom_hangup(struct tty_struct *tty)
1308 {
...
1315         spin_lock_irqsave(&port->card->card_lock, flags);
1316         isicom_shutdown_port(port);
...

Path to might_sleep macro from isicom_hangup:
1. isicom_hangup calls spin_lock_irqsave (drivers/char/isicom.c:1315) and
then 
calls isicom_shutdown_port.
2. isiscom_shutdown_port calls tty_port_free_xmit_buf at 
drivers/char/isicom.c:906
3. tty_port_free_xmit_buf calls mutex_lock at drivers/char/tty_port:48

a9a37ec33a tty: tty_port: Move the IO_ERROR clear
Some devices want to set IO_ERROR in their activate methods so that you can
be handed a 'dead' port for operations like setserial. Thus we need to
clear the flag before activate so that activate can choose to set the flag
and still return 0.

This is fine as the file handle/tty are not accessible to the user yet.

b5849b1a82 sdio_uart: use tty_port
Add a tty_port object to the sdio uart. For the moment just begin using the
tty field of the port, as this is the critical one to clean up.

e707c35cbb tty_port: Move hupcl handling
Move the HUCPL handling from the end of close_port_start to the beginning
of close_port_end. What this actually does is change the ordering from

	port shutdown
	port->dtr_rts

to

	port->dtr_rts
	port shutdown

Some hardware drops the physical connection on shutdown so we must perform
the port operations before the shutdown.

edfacdd6f8 devpts_get_tty() should validate inode
devpts_get_tty() assumes that the inode passed in is associated with a valid
pty.  But if the only reference to the pty is via a bind-mount, the inode
passed to devpts_get_tty() while valid, would refer to a pty that no longer
exists.

With a lot of debug effort, Grzegorz Nosek developed a small program (see
below) to reproduce a crash on recent kernels. This crash is a regression
introduced by the commit:

	commit 527b3e4773
	Author: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@us.ibm.com>
	Date:   Mon Oct 13 10:43:08 2008 +0100

To fix, ensure that the dentry associated with the inode has not yet been
deleted/unhashed by devpts_pty_kill().

68cb4f8e24 Serial: Do not read IIR in serial8250_start_tx when UART_BUG_TXEN
Do not read IIR in serial8250_start_tx when UART_BUG_TXEN

Reading the IIR clears some oustanding interrupts so it is not safe.
Instead, simply transmit immediately if the buffer is empty without
regard to IIR.

c934878cc0 Serial: pxa: work around Errata #75
Intel(R) PXA27x Processor Family Specification Update (Nov 2005)
says:

  E75. UART: Baud rate may not be programmed correctly on
       back-to-back writes.

  Problem:
  When programming the Divisor Latch registers, Low and High (DLL and
  DLH), with back-to-back writes, the second register write may not
  take effect. The result is an incorrect baud rate.

  Workaround:
  After programming the first Divisor Latch register, read and verify
  it before programming the second Divisor Latch register.

This was hit when changing the baud rate from 115200 to 9600 while
receiving characters at 9600 Bd.

And fixed indention of some comments nearby.
