When using DMA, half duplex doesn't work properly because rx is not stopped

There is a macro named ATMEL_SERIAL_RINGSIZE which suggesting that it
corresponds to the real size of the ring buffer. Let warn people that
there is a factor of four since allocation size is
sizeof(struct atmel_uart_char) * ATMEL_SERIAL_RINGSIZE.

The IRQ status check and related actions was done in the tasklet without
benefit. So, move it back to the IRQ context to simplify IRQ handling and
having the possibility to split the tasklet in two separated ones for

We are getting somewhat random soft lockups with this signature:

[ 87.030278] [<fffffc000809056c>] gic_handle_irq+0x94/0x190
This is caused by the vt visual_init() function calling into
fbcon_init() with a vc_cur_blink_ms value of zero. This is a
transient condition, as it is later set to a non-zero value. But, if
the timer happens to expire while the blink rate is zero, it goes into
an endless loop, and we get soft lockup.
The fix is to initialize vc_cur_blink_ms before calling the con_init()
function.

Doing the following UART bind/unbind sequence on a i.mx platform causes
a kernel crash due to NULL pointer dereference:
echo 21f4000.serial > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/imx-uart/bind
echo 21f4000.serial > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/imx-uart/unbind
Fix this problem by adding NULL checks prior to calling release/request_port

For dm uarts in pio mode tx data is transferred to the fifo register 4
bytes at a time, but care is not taken when these 4 bytes spans the end
of the xmit buffer so the loop might read up to 3 bytes past the buffer
and then skip the actual data at the beginning of the buffer.
Fix this by, analogous to the DMA case, make sure the chunk doesn't
wrap the xmit buffer.

Avoid data corruption issues that result in CRC errors during file
transfers over serial ports at higher baud rates.
The current msm_serial driver masks the FIFO Rx interrupts in
msm_start_rx_dma() since Rx FIFO interrupts are not required in DMA
mode. However, msm_complete_rx_dma() re-enables the Rx FIFO interrupts
which could cause RXSTALE event to be processed when a TXLEV interrupt
occurs.
The following is the sequence of events that could occur resulting in
data corruption.
msm_start_rx_dma -> msm_complete_rx_dma -->
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&port->lock) -->
msm_uart_irq()(For TXLEV interrupt) --> msm_handle_rx_dm() (Read from
FIFO resulting in data corruption)
The patch fixes the issue by not restoring the RXLEV and RXSTALE
interrupts in msm_complete_rx_dma(). These interrupts are required only
in FIFO mode.

FIFO reset is done in sci_reset(), called from sci_set_termios(), while
sci_start_tx() and sci_start_rx() are called before, from sci_startup().
However, starting transfers before the UART's FIFOs have been reset may
cause reading of stale data.
Remove the calls to sci_start_tx() and sci_start_rx() from sci_startup()
to fix this.
Transfers are still started when needed:
- sci_start_rx() is called from sci_set_termios() after FIFO reset, if
the CREAD flag is set,
- sci_start_tx() is called from uart_change_speed() immediately
thereafter, if transmission is enabled.

Correct pin initialization on (H)SCIF:
- RTS must be deasserted (it's active low),
- SCK must be an input, as it may be used as the optional external
clock input.
Initial pin configuration must always be done:
- Regardless of the presence of dedicated RTS and CTS pins: if the
register exists, the RTS/CTS bits exist, too,
- Regardless of hardware flow control being enabled or not: RTS must
be deasserted.

Documentation/serial/driver clearly states:
If the port does not support CTS, DCD or DSR, the driver should
indicate that the signal is permanently active.
Hence always set TIOCM_CTS, as we currently don't look at the CTS
hardware line state at all.
FWIW, this fixes the transmit path when hardware-assisted flow control
is enabled, and userspace enables CRTSCTS.
The receive path is still broken, as RTS is never asserted.

The /dev/ptmx device node is changed to lookup the directory entry "pts"
in the same directory as the /dev/ptmx device node was opened in. If
there is a "pts" entry and that entry is a devpts filesystem /dev/ptmx
uses that filesystem. Otherwise the open of /dev/ptmx fails.
The DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES configuration option is removed, so that
userspace can now safely depend on each mount of devpts creating a new
instance of the filesystem.
Each mount of devpts is now a separate and equal filesystem.
Reserved ttys are now available to all instances of devpts where the
mounter is in the initial mount namespace.
A new vfs helper path_pts is introduced that finds a directory entry
named "pts" in the directory of the passed in path, and changes the
passed in path to point to it. The helper path_pts uses a function
path_parent_directory that was factored out of follow_dotdot.
In the implementation of devpts:
- devpts_mnt is killed as it is no longer meaningful if all mounts of
devpts are equal.
- pts_sb_from_inode is replaced by just inode->i_sb as all cached
inodes in the tty layer are now from the devpts filesystem.
- devpts_add_ref is rolled into the new function devpts_ptmx. And the
unnecessary inode hold is removed.
- devpts_del_ref is renamed devpts_release and reduced to just a
deacrivate_super.
- The newinstance mount option continues to be accepted but is now
ignored.
In devpts_fs.h definitions for when !CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS are removed as
they are never used.
Documentation/filesystems/devices.txt is updated to describe the current
situation.
This has been verified to work properly on openwrt-15.05, centos5,
centos6, centos7, debian-6.0.2, debian-7.9, debian-8.2, ubuntu-14.04.3,
ubuntu-15.10, fedora23, magia-5, mint-17.3, opensuse-42.1,
slackware-14.1, gentoo-20151225 (13.0?), archlinux-2015-12-01. With the
caveat that on centos6 and on slackware-14.1 that there wind up being
two instances of the devpts filesystem mounted on /dev/pts, the lower
copy does not end up getting used.

Most users of IS_ERR_VALUE() in the kernel are wrong, as they
pass an 'int' into a function that takes an 'unsigned long'
argument. This happens to work because the type is sign-extended
on 64-bit architectures before it gets converted into an
unsigned type.
However, anything that passes an 'unsigned short' or 'unsigned int'
argument into IS_ERR_VALUE() is guaranteed to be broken, as are
8-bit integers and types that are wider than 'unsigned long'.
Andrzej Hajda has already fixed a lot of the worst abusers that
were causing actual bugs, but it would be nice to prevent any
users that are not passing 'unsigned long' arguments.
This patch changes all users of IS_ERR_VALUE() that I could find
on 32-bit ARM randconfig builds and x86 allmodconfig. For the
moment, this doesn't change the definition of IS_ERR_VALUE()
because there are probably still architecture specific users
elsewhere.
Almost all the warnings I got are for files that are better off
using 'if (err)' or 'if (err < 0)'.
The only legitimate user I could find that we get a warning for
is the (32-bit only) freescale fman driver, so I did not remove
the IS_ERR_VALUE() there but changed the type to 'unsigned long'.
For 9pfs, I just worked around one user whose calling conventions
are so obscure that I did not dare change the behavior.
I was using this definition for testing:
#define IS_ERR_VALUE(x) ((unsigned long*)NULL == (typeof (x)*)NULL && \
unlikely((unsigned long long)(x) >= (unsigned long long)(typeof(x))-MAX_ERRNO))
which ends up making all 16-bit or wider types work correctly with
the most plausible interpretation of what IS_ERR_VALUE() was supposed
to return according to its users, but also causes a compile-time
warning for any users that do not pass an 'unsigned long' argument.
I suggested this approach earlier this year, but back then we ended
up deciding to just fix the users that are obviously broken. After
the initial warning that caused me to get involved in the discussion
(fs/gfs2/dir.c) showed up again in the mainline kernel, Linus
asked me to send the whole thing again.

Pull tty and serial driver updates from Greg KH:
"Here's the large TTY and Serial driver update for 4.7-rc1.
A few new serial drivers are added here, and Peter has fixed a bunch
of long-standing bugs in the tty layer and serial drivers as normal.
Full details in the shortlog.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues"
