serial: bfin_sport_uart: Remove casting the return value which is a void pointer

2013-09-26T21:29:58+00:00

Casting the return value which is a void pointer is redundant.
The conversion from void pointer to any other pointer type is
guaranteed by the C programming language.

tty: serial: bfin_sport: drop uart_port->lock before calling tty_flip_buffer_push()

2013-08-27T23:17:34+00:00

The current driver triggers a lockdep warning for if tty_flip_buffer_push() is
called with uart_port->lock locked. This never shows up on UP kernels and comes
up only on SMP kernels.

Crash looks like this (produced with samsung.c driver):

Release the port lock before calling tty_flip_buffer_push() and reacquire it
after the call.

Similar stuff was already done for few other drivers in the past, like:

TTY: switch tty_flip_buffer_push

2013-01-16T06:30:15+00:00

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.

tty_insert_flip_char is the next one to proceed. This one is used all
over the code, so the patch is huge.
