In case that CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is on and pty is used, races between
release_one_tty and flush_to_ldisc work threads may happen and lead
to use-after-free condition on tty->link->port. Because SLUB_DEBUG
is turned on, freed tty->link->port is filled with POISON_FREE value.
So far without SLUB_DEBUG, port was filled with zero and flush_to_ldisc
could return without a problem by checking if tty is NULL.

Prior to this patch, the code would happily trigger TX on some ports
before having a chance of reading the RX buffer from the rest of them.
When no flow control was used, this led to RX buffer overruns and
therefore lost data under certain circumstances.
I was able to reproduce this with MAX14830 (that's a quad channel one)
and a simple daisy-chain of RX and TX ports on the eval board:
- TX0 -> RX1
- TX1 -> RX2
- TX2 -> RX3
- TX3 -> RX0
I was testing this by transferring 2MB of data at 115200 baud via each
port. I used a Solidrun Clearfog Base (Armada 388) which was talking to
the UART over an SPI bus clocked at 26MHz (the chip's maximum). Without
this patch, I would always get a "Possible RX FIFO overrun" in dmesg,
and fewer-than-expected amount of bytes received over ttyMAX0. Results
on ttyMAX{1,2,3} tended to be correct all the time, even without the
previous patches in this series and with PIO SPI transfers ("indirect
mode" as the Marvell datasheet calls it), so I assume that heavy
congestion is needed in order to reproduce this.
A drawback of this patch is that the throughput gets reduced "a bit".
Previously, a 115200 baud resulted in about 11.2kBps throughput as
reported by a simple `pv`. With this patch, the throughput of four
parallel streams is roughly 7kBps each, and 9kBps for three streams.
There is no slowdown for one or two parallel streams.
Situation is worse if bytes are being read one-by-one (such as if the
userspace wants to perform parity/framing/break checking) and therefore
without the batched reads.
With just this patch and no other modifications on top of 4.14, I was
only getting roughly 3.6kBps with four parallel streams. The
single-stream performance was the same, and I was seeing about 7.2kBps
with two parallel streams. `perf top` said that a substantial amount of
time was spent in `finish_task_switch`, `_raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore`
and `__timer_delay`.

The hardware has a 128 byte RX FIFO buffer for each independent UART.
Previously, the code was always reading that byte-by-byte via
independent SPI transactions and the associated overhead. In practice,
this led to up to eight bytes over SPI for just one byte in the UART's
RX FIFO:
- reading the global IRQ register (two bytes, one for command, the other
for data)
- reading one UART's ISR (again two bytes)
- reading the byte count (two bytes yet again)
- finally, reading one byte of the FIFO via another two-byte transaction
We cannot always use a batched read. If the TTY is set to intercept
break conditions or report framing or parity errors, then it is required
to check the Line Status Register (LSR) for each byte which is read from
the RX FIFO. The documentation does not show a way of doing that in a
single SPI transaction; registers 0x00 and 0x04 are separate.
In my testing, this is no silver bullet. I was feeding 2MB of random
data over four daisy-chaned UARTs of MAX14830, and this is the
distribution that I was getting:
- R <= 1: 7437322
- R <= 2: 162093
- R <= 4: 4093
- R <= 8: 4196
- R <= 16: 645
- R <= 32: 165
- R <= 64: 58
- R <= 128: 0
For a reference, batching the write operations works much better:
- W <= 1: 2664
- W <= 2: 1305
- W <= 4: 627
- W <= 8: 371
- W <= 16: 121
- W <= 32: 68
- W <= 64: 33
- W <= 128: 63139
That's probably because this HW/SW combination (Clearfog Base, Armada
388) is probably "good enough" to react to the chip's IRQ "fast enough"
most of the time. Still, I was getting RX overruns every now and then.
In future, I plan to improve this by letting the RX FIFO be filled a
little more (the chip has support for that and also for a "stale
timeout" to prevent additional starvation).

The transmit register supports batched writes. The key is simply to keep
sending additional bytes up to the FIFO size in the same SPI
transaction with the CS pin still being held low.
This duplicates the regmap infrastructure to a certain extent. There are
some provisions for multiple writes in there, but there does not appear
to be any support for those writes which are destined to the *same*
register (and also no standard for SPI bus transfers of these, anyway).
This patch does not solve every case (if the UART xmit circular buffer
wraps around, we're still doing two SPI transactions), but at least
it's not one-byte-per-transaction anymore.
This change does not touch the receive path at this time. Doing that in
the generic case appears to be impossible in the general case, because
the chips' status register contains data about the *current* byte in the
HW's Rx FIFO. We cannot read these two registers in one go,
unfortunately.

As a kernel newcomer, I got bitten by lack of examples on this front. I
had troubles figuring out where these clocks could be defined ("/clocks"
is where the generic infrastructure expects them).
One should also ensure that a unique name is used. Generic names such as
"osc" tend to be already used by some board-wide clock crystals.

According to my chip's datasheet [1], the IRQ output is an open
collector pin which is suitable for sharing with other chips. The chip
also has a register which indicates which UART performed a change and
the driver checks that register already, so we have everything what is
needed to effectively share the IRQ GPIO.

Disabling IRQ #51
On a multi-UART max310x, each UART has its own interrupt status register
which automatically de-asserts the IRQ line upon read. (There are also
top-level IRQ indicator registers which are not clear-on-read, but they
are not relevant here.) It was quite possible to receive a pending IRQ
for, e.g., UART0, enter the threaded IRQ handler, clear the ISR for
UART0 which de-asserts the IRQ line, and then race with another event on
the same chip, but a different UART channel. That resulted in another
edge on the shared-within-the-chip IRQ line which got intercepted by the
kernel.
That all led to an edge-level interrupt which was not being handled by
anybody because our threaded handler hasn't finished yet. As the chip
actually uses *level* triggered IRQs, let's convert the example DT
bindings to these.

As suggested by Russell King, a driver should not really care about bits
such as the interrupt polarity or whether it is edge- or level-
triggered. The reasons for that include:
- an upstream IRQ controller which cannot support edge- or
level-triggered interrupts,
- board design with a built-in inverter
The interrupt type is being already specified by the Device Tree,
anyway. Other drivers (gpio/gpio-tc3589x.c for example) already work in
this way, delegating the proper IRQ line setup to the DT and not
specifying anything by hand.
Also, there's no reason to have the IRQ flags split between two places.
The SPI probing is the only entry point anyway.

meson_mx_efuse_read calculates the address internal to the eFuse based
on the offset and the word size. This works fine with any given offset.
However, the offset is also included when writing to the output buffer.
This means that reading 4 bytes at offset 500 tries to write beyond the
array allocated by the nvmem core as it wants to write the 4 bytes to
"buffer address + offset (500)".
This issue did not show up in the previous tests since no driver uses
any value from the eFuse yet and reading the eFuse via sysfs simply
reads the whole eFuse, starting at offset 0.
Fix this by only including the offset in the internal address
calculation.

The driver may sleep under a spinlock.
The function call paths are:
isicom_activate (acquire the spinlock)
isicom_setup_board
drop_dtr_rts
WaitTillCardIsFree
msleep --> may sleep
isicom_set_termios
isicom_config_port
drop_dtr
WaitTillCardIsFree
msleep --> may sleep
isicom_tiocmset
drop_dtr
WaitTillCardIsFree
msleep --> may sleep
Though "in_atomic" is used to check atomic context,
but it is not recommended to use in driver code (see include/linux/preempt.h).
To fix it, only using mdelay instead.
This bug is found by my static analysis tool(DSAC) and checked by my code review.

On most Renesas ARM platforms, the SCIF serial ports can be used with
DMA, so most users will want DMA support to be enabled.
On SuperH platforms, SCI(F) serial ports cannot be used with DMA yet
(see also commit 219fb0c1436e4893 ("serial: sh-sci: Remove the platform
data dma slave rx/tx channel IDs")), so users will want it disabled to
reduce kernel size.
Hence follow the above rationale to configure the default, unless
CONFIG_EXPERT is enabled.

Using "make kvmconfig" results in a potentially unusable linux image
on s390. The reason is that both the (default on s390) sclp consoles
as well as the 8250 console register a ttyS<x> as console. Since there
will be no 8250 on s390 let's fence 8250. This will ensure that there
is always a working sclp console.

sign_extend32 counts the sign bit parameter from 0, not from 1. So we
have to use "11" for 12th bit, not "12".
This mistake means we have not allowed negative op and cmp args since

The macro used to access or set an RSS table entry was using an offset
of 8, while it should use an offset of 0. This lead to wrongly configure
the RSS table, not accessing the right entries.

RACK skips an ACK unless it advances the most recently delivered
TX timestamp (rack.mstamp). Since RACK also uses the most recent
RTT to decide if a packet is lost, RACK should still run the
loss detection whenever the most recent RTT changes. For example,
an ACK that does not advance the timestamp but triggers the cwnd
undo due to reordering, would then use the most recent (higher)
RTT measurement to detect further losses.
