Lukas Wunner 49a80424e3 serial: pl011: Drop redundant DTR/RTS preservation on close/open 
Commit d8d8ffa477 ("amba-pl011: do not disable RTS during shutdown")
amended the PL011 serial driver to leave DTR/RTS polarity untouched on
tty close.  That change made sense.

But the commit also added code to save DTR/RTS state to an internal
variable on tty close and restore it on tty open.  That part of the
commit makes less sense:  The driver has no ->pm() callback, so the uart
remains powered after tty close and automatically preserves register
state, including DTR/RTS.

Saving and restoring registers isn't the job of the ->startup() and
->shutdown() callbacks anyway.  Rather, it should happen in ->pm().

Additionally, after pl011_startup() restores the state, the serial core
overrides it in uart_port_dtr_rts() if a baud rate has been set:

tty_port_open()
  uart_port_activate()
    uart_startup()
      uart_port_startup()
        pl011_startup()       # restores DTR/RTS from uap->old_cr
  tty_port_block_til_ready()
    tty_port_raise_dtr_rts    # if (C_BAUD(tty))
      uart_dtr_rts()
        uart_port_dtr_rts()   # raises DTR/RTS

The serial core also overrides DTR/RTS on tty close in uart_shutdown()
if C_HUPCL(tty) is set.  So a user-defined DTR/RTS polarity won't
survive a close/open cycle anyway, unless the user has set the baud rate
to zero and disabled hupcl on the tty.

Bottom line is, the code to save and restore DTR/RTS has no effect.
Remove it.

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.
