commit 3ac06b905655b3ef2fd2196bab36e4587e1e4e4f upstream.

3GPP TS 07.10 states in section 5.4.6.3.7:
"The length byte contains the value 2 or 3 ... depending on the break
signal." The break byte is optional and if it is sent, the length is
3. In fact the driver was not able to work with modems that send this
break byte in their modem status control message. If the modem just
sends the break byte if it is really set, then weird things might
happen.
The code for deconding the modem status to the internal linux
presentation in gsm_process_modem has already a big comment about
this 2 or 3 byte length thing and it is already able to decode the
brk, but the code calling the gsm_process_modem function in
gsm_control_modem does not encode it and hand it over the right way.
This patch fixes this.
Without this fix if the modem sends the brk byte in it's modem status
control message the driver will hang when opening a muxed channel.

<title>TTY: fix DTR not being dropped on hang up</title>

Move HUPCL handling to port shutdown so that DTR is dropped also on hang
up (tty_port_close is a noop for hung-up ports).

Also do not try to drop DTR for uninitialised ports where it has never
been raised (e.g. after a failed open).

Note that this is also the current behaviour of serial-core.

Nine drivers currently call tty_port_close_start directly (rather than
through tty_port_close) and seven of them lower DTR as part of their
close (if the port has been initialised). Fixup the remaining two
drivers so that it continues to be lowered also on normal (non-HUP)
close. [ Note that most of those other seven drivers did not expect DTR
to have been dropped by tty_port_close_start in the first place. ]

It allows for cleaning up on a considerable amount of places. They did
port_get, hangup, kref_put. Now the only thing needed is to call
tty_port_tty_hangup which does exactly that. And they can also decide
whether to consider CLOCAL or completely ignore that.

<title>tty: Prevent deadlock in n_gsm driver</title>

<id>4d9b109060f690f5c835130ff54165ae157b3087</id>
<content type='text'>
This change fixes a deadlock when the multiplexer is closed while there
are still client side ports open.

When the multiplexer is closed and there are active tty's it tries to
close them with tty_vhangup. This has a problem though, because
tty_vhangup needs the tty_lock. This patch changes it to unlock the
tty_lock before attempting the hangup and relocks afterwards. The
additional call to tty_port_tty_set is needed because otherwise the
port stays active because of the reference counter.

This change also exposed another problem that other code paths don't
expect that the multiplexer could have been closed. This patch also adds
checks for these cases in the gsmtty_ class of function that could be
called.

The documentation explicitly states that "first close all virtual ports
before closing the physical port" but we've found this to not always
reality in our field situations. The GPRS / UTMS modem sometimes crashes
and needs a power cycle in that case which means cleanly shutting down
everything is not always possible. This change makes it much more robust
for our situation where at least the system is recoverable with this patch
and doesn't hang in a deadlock situation inside the kernel.

The patch is against the long term support kernel (3.4.27) and should
apply cleanly to more recent branches. Tested with a Telit GE864-QUADV2
and Telit HE910 modem.

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use
tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many
call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more
tty_port_tty_get in those paths.

Now, the one where most of tty_port_tty_get gets removed:
tty_flip_buffer_push.

IOW we also closed all the races in drivers not using tty_port_tty_get
at all yet.

Also we move tty_flip_buffer_push declaration from include/linux/tty.h
to include/linux/tty_flip.h to all others while we are changing it
anyway.

All the call to gsm-&gt;output should be in the tx_lock,
that could avoid potential race from MUX level. But
we have no tx_lock in gsm_send.

This patch is to add tx_lock in gsm_send.

After commit "TTY: move tty buffers to tty_port", the tty buffers are
not freed in some drivers. This is because tty_port_destructor is not
called whenever a tty_port is freed. This was an assumption I counted
with but was unfortunately untrue. So fix the drivers to fulfil this
assumption.

Here it is enough to switch to refcounting in tty_port.
