[PATCH v2 1/2] serial: sifive: lock port in startup()/shutdown() callbacks

[PATCH v2 1/2] serial: sifive: lock port in startup()/shutdown() callbacks

[Ryo Takakura]

startup()/shutdown() callbacks access SIFIVE_SERIAL_IE_OFFS.
The register is also accessed from write() callback.

If console were printing and startup()/shutdown() callback
gets called, its access to the register could be overwritten.

Add port->lock to startup()/shutdown() callbacks to make sure
their access to SIFIVE_SERIAL_IE_OFFS is synchronized against
write() callback.

Hi,

Thanks for your patch.

FYI: kernel test robot notices the stable kernel rule is not satisfied.

The check is based on https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html#option-1

Rule: add the tag "Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org" in the sign-off area to have the patch automatically included in the stable tree.

Hi,

I'm sorry that I wasn't aware of how Cc stable should be done. 

I added Cc for stable but please tell me if this patch should be
resent or if there is any that is missing.

Sincerely,
Ryo Takakura
