[PATCH 0/9] tty: xuartps: Fix lock ups

[soren.brinkmann@xilinx.com (Soren Brinkmann)]

Hi,

I recently found my system locking up under some conditions. I dug
through the code a bit and the result is this collections of various
changes. Some of it may not be required and has just been created out of
half-baked theories and re-reading the documentation. The actual failing
scenarios seem to be:
 - RX IRQ conditions are handled while the receiver is disabled, leaving
   the driver in an infinite loop
 - console_put_char seems to be interrupted by uart_shutdown disabling
   the transmitter while/just before printing

I.e. overall I tried to serialize all operations using the port lock to
avoid such interaction.
