Uwe Kleine-König 101aa46bd2 serial: imx: fix a race condition in receive path
The main irq handler function starts by first masking disabled
interrupts in the status register values to ensure to only handle
enabled interrupts. This is important as when the RX path in the
hardware is disabled reading the RX fifo results in an external abort.

This checking must be done under the port lock, otherwise the following
can happen:

     CPU1                            | CPU2
                                     |
     irq triggers as there are chars |
     in the RX fifo                  |
				     | grab port lock
     imx_uart_int finds RRDY enabled |
     and calls imx_uart_rxint which  |
     has to wait for port lock       |
                                     | disable RX (e.g. because we're
                                     | using RS485 with !RX_DURING_TX)
                                     |
                                     | release port lock
     read from RX fifo with RX       |
     disabled => exception           |

So take the port lock only once in imx_uart_int() instead of in the
functions called from there.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
