commit 26e8220adb0aec43b7acafa0f1431760eee28522 upstream.

Apparently the same card model has two IDs, so this patch
complements the commit 39aced68d664291db3324d0fcf0985ab5626aac2
adding the missing one.

commit aaa10eb1d0034eccc096f583fe308f0921617598 upstream.

The rules used to make 8250_pci "ignore" the PCH uarts are lacking pci subids
entries, preventing it to match and thus is breaking serial port support for
theses systems.

This has been tested on a nanoETXexpress-TT, which has a specifici uart clock.

commit f9a9111b540fd67db5dab332f4b83d86c90e27b1 upstream.

We noticed that we were loosing data at speed less than 2400 baud.
It turned out our (TI16750 compatible) uart with 64 byte outgoing fifo
was truncated to 16 byte (bit 5 sets fifo len) when modifying the fcr
reg.
The input code still fills the buffer with 64 bytes if I remember
correctly and thus data is lost.
Our fix was to remove whiping of the fcr content and just add the
TRIGGER_1 which we want for latency.
I can't see why this would not work on less than 2400 always, for all
uarts ...
Otherwise one would have to make sure the filling of the fifo re-checks
the current state of available fifo size (urrk).

<title>serial/8250_pci: add a "force background timer" flag and use it for the "kt" serial port</title>

Workaround dropped notifications in the iir register.  Register reads
coincident with new interrupt notifications sometimes result in this
device clearing the interrupt event without reporting it in the read
data.

The serial core already has a heuristic for determining when a device
has an untrustworthy iir register.  In this case when we apriori know
that the iir is faulty use a flag (UPF_BUG_THRE) to bypass the test and
force usage of the background timer.

<content type='text'>
This reverts commit 448ac154c957c4580531fa0c8f2045816fe2f0e7.

The semantic of UPF_IIR_ONCE is only guaranteed to workaround the race
condition in the kt serial's iir register if the only source of
interrupts is THRE (fifo-empty) events.  An modem status event at the
wrong time can again cause an iir read to drop the 'empty' status
leading to a hang.  So, revert this in preparation for using the
existing "I don't trust my iir register" workaround in the 8250 core
(UART_BUG_THRE).

<content type='text'>
This reverts commit e86ff4a63c9fdd875ba8492577cd1ad2252f525c.

This tried to enforce the semantics of one interrupt per iir read of the
THRE (transmit-hold empty) status, but events from other sources
(particularly modem status) defeat this guarantee.

This change also broke 8250_pci suspend/resume support as
pciserial_resume_ports() re-runs .init() quirks, but does not run
.exit() quirks in pciserial_suspend_ports() leading to reports like:

  sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:16.3/msi_irqs'

...and a subsequent crash.  The mismatch of init/exit at suspend/resume
seems like a bug in its own right.

The two callers to serial_out_sync() have a struct port right
there in scope, but then pass in a struct 8250_port which then
is locally resolved back to a struct port.

Delete the needless back and forth and just pass in the struct
port directly.  Rename the function to have "_port" in its
name, so the name &lt;--&gt; args relationship is consistent with the
other serial_in/out vs serial_port_in/out function classes.

<title>serial: use serial_port_in/out vs serial_in/out in 8250</title>

<id>4fd996a14660f56a6fd92ce7c8fb167d262c994f</id>
<content type='text'>
The serial_in and serial_out helpers are expecting to operate
on an 8250_port struct.  These in turn go after the contained
normal port struct which actually has the actual in/out accessors.

But what is happening in some cases, is that a function is passed
in a port struct, and it runs container_of to get the 8250_port
struct, and then it uses serial_in/out helpers on that.  But when
you do, it goes full circle, since it jumps back inside the 8250_port
to find the contained port struct (which we already knew!).

So, if we are operating in a scope where we know the struct port,
then use the serial_port_in/out helpers and avoid the bouncing
around.  If we don't have the struct port handy, and it isn't
worth making a local for it, then just leave things as-is which
uses the serial_in/out helpers that will resolve the 8250_port
onto the struct port.

Mostly, gcc figures this out on its own -- so this doesn't bring to
the table any revolutionary runtime delta.  However, it is somewhat
misleading to always hammer away on 8250 structs, when the actual
underlying property isn't at all 8250 specific -- and this change
makes that clear.
