Subject: [PATCH v2 3/7] serial: 8250: Add serial8250_handle_irq_locked()
Date: Wed, 28 Jan 2026 12:52:57 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260128105301.1869-4-ilpo.jarvinen@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260128105301.1869-1-ilpo.jarvinen@linux.intel.com>

8250_port exports serial8250_handle_irq() to HW specific 8250 drivers.
It takes port's lock within but a HW specific 8250 driver may want to
take port's lock itself, do something, and then call the generic
handler in 8250_port but to do that, the caller has to release port's
lock for no good reason.

Introduce serial8250_handle_irq_locked() which a HW specific driver can
call while already holding port's lock.

As this is new export, put it straight into a namespace (where all 8250
exports should eventually be moved).
