Sergiu Moga 418a52be5d tty: serial: atmel: Preserve previous USART mode if RS485 disabled 
commit 692a8ebcfc upstream.

Whenever the atmel_rs485_config() driver method would be called,
the USART mode is reset to normal mode before even checking if
RS485 flag is set, thus resulting in losing the previous USART
mode in the case where the checking fails.

Some tools, such as `linux-serial-test`, lead to the driver calling
this method when doing the setup of the serial port: after setting the
port mode (Hardware Flow Control, Normal Mode, RS485 Mode, etc.),
`linux-serial-test` tries to enable/disable RS485 depending on
the commandline arguments that were passed.

Example of how this issue could reveal itself:
When doing a serial communication with Hardware Flow Control through
`linux-serial-test`, the tool would lead to the driver roughly doing
the following:
- set the corresponding bit to 1 (ATMEL_US_USMODE_HWHS bit in the
ATMEL_US_MR register) through the atmel_set_termios() to enable
Hardware Flow Control
- disable RS485 through the atmel_config_rs485() method
Thus, when the latter is called, the mode will be reset and the
previously set bit is unset, leaving USART in normal mode instead of
the expected Hardware Flow Control mode.

This fix ensures that this reset is only done if the checking for
RS485 succeeds and that the previous mode is preserved otherwise.

README 

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.
