Subject: [PATCH 5/8] serial: core: Expand port mutex section in uart_poll_init()
Date: Sat, 12 Dec 2015 16:36:29 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1449966992-4033-6-git-send-email-peter@hurleysoftware.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1449966992-4033-1-git-send-email-peter@hurleysoftware.com>

Prepare uart_poll_init() to safely dereference uart port; expand the
port mutex section to guarantee uart port remains valid until
uart_poll_init() completes.
