Subject: [patch] serial: fix UART_BUG_TXEN test
Date: Wed, 05 Apr 2006 12:23:11 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <44339A8F.7030305@suse.de> (raw)

  Hi,

There is a bug in the UART_BUG_TXEN test: It gives false positives in
case the UART_IER_THRI bit is set.  Fixed by explicitly clearing the
UART_IER register first.

It may trigger with an active serial console as serial console writes
set the UART_IER_THRI bit.

cheers,

  Gerd
