patch "tty: serial: imx: keep console clocks always on" added to tty-linus

[<gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    tty: serial: imx: keep console clocks always on

to my tty git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git
in the tty-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

For below code, there has chance to cause deadlock in SMP system:
Thread 1:
clk_enable_lock();
pr_info("debug message");
clk_enable_unlock();

Thread 2:
imx_uart_console_write()
	clk_enable()
		clk_enable_lock();

Thread 1:
Acuired clk enable_lock -> printk -> console_trylock_spinning
Thread 2:
console_unlock() -> imx_uart_console_write -> clk_disable -> Acquite clk enable_lock

So the patch is to keep console port clocks always on like
other console drivers.
