[PATCH 1/7] Char: nozomi, use GFP_KERNEL for kfifo allocation

[Jiri Slaby]

The allocation was moved to probe function in 9842c38e9176. And we can
sleep there. So allocate the 4*8192 bytes as GFP_KERNEL to mitigate
the allocation failure.

[PATCH 2/7] Char: nozomi, remove port.count checks

[Jiri Slaby]

Before 33dd474a, these were some kind of protection against race with
HUP. They were protected with port->tty_sem at the same time.

By that commit, the counting was switched to tty_port's one, but the
locking remained the old one. So the count was not protected by
any lock anymore.

The driver should not test whether it raced with HUP or not anyways.
With the new refcounted tty model, it just should proceed as nothing
happened because all needed info is still there. In respect to this,
let's drop the useless and unprotected tests (tty_port->count is
protected by tty_port->lock).

[PATCH 3/7] Char: nozomi, remove useless tty_sem

[Jiri Slaby]

tty_sem used to protect tty open count. This was removed in 33dd474a
but the lock remained in place.

So remove it completely as it protects nothing now.

Also this solves Mac's problem with inatomic operation called from
atomic context (ppp):

[PATCH 4/7] Char: moxa, fix locking in moxa_write

[Jiri Slaby]

moxa_write can be called from atomic context with irqs disabled (from
ppp_async_push). Don't enable interrupts by spin_unlock_bh as this
might cause deadlocks in the ppp layer.

Instead, use irqsave/irqrestore spin_lock functions.

[PATCH 5/7] TTY: serial_core, remove invalid test

[Jiri Slaby]

tty->index (named here as line) is set up in initialize_tty_struct.
The value is checked in get_tty_driver for the found driver as:
	if (device < base || device >= base + p->num)
		continue;
	*index = device - base;

So index/line can never be more than driver->num. Hence remove this
test from uart_open.

[PATCH 6/7] TTY: serial_core, remove superfluous set_task_state

[Jiri Slaby]

msleep* is guaranteed to return with TASK_RUNNING task state. And
since there is no other set_task_state in the paths of
uart_wait_until_sent, we need not to set_task_state to TASK_RUNNING.
