Subject: [PATCH] sa1100 serial: sa1100_start_tx spinlock recursion
Date: Thu, 10 Nov 2005 22:09:37 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20051110220937.4e26592e.fmalita@gmail.com> (raw)

The serial core aquires the port spinlock before calling
port->ops->start_tx(), so sa1100_start_tx() shouldn't try to lock it
again.

BUG: spinlock recursion on CPU#0, init/1
 lock: c0205f20, .magic: dead4ead, .owner: init/1, .owner_cpu: 0
