We got rid of backup_tty recently. Also, the tty layer ensures not to
call other ldisc hooks after ldisc close. That means, all those tests
are superfluous now so remove them.
Note that we remove the magic check in write after schedule too. The tty
cannot change during schedule.

that the "if" is superfluous now -- the same happens few lines above in

n_hdlc_release contains four loops to free each buffer list. Create a
helper (n_hdlc_free_buf_list) and call it for every list instead. It
makes n_hdlc_release more readable.
We are switching from "for (;;)" to "do {} while (buf)" which avoids the
"if (buf)" completely -- kfree is a nop for NULL pointers.

These strings were put aside from prints to save some bytes after module
load or when built-in -- they were freed after module load (__init ones) or
when the driver is selected as built-in (__exit ones).
The savings are negligible, but the code readability is worse by the
order of magnitude. So put the strings where they belong. Note that it
also used to make little sense putting const data in .data (the __exit
case).
While at it, switch to pr_info, pr_err, not using the KERN_INFO and _ERR
directly.

With pr_debug we have a fine-grained control about debugging prints. So
convert the use of global debuglevel variable and tests to a commonly

This also implicitly adds a loglevel to the messages (KERN_DEBUG) as it

It is due to a race between parallel paste_selection (TIOCL_PASTESEL)
and set_selection_user (TIOCL_SETSEL) invocations. One uses sel_buffer,
while the other frees it and reallocates a new one for another
selection. Add a mutex to close this race.
The mutex takes care properly of sel_buffer and sel_buffer_lth only. The
other selection global variables (like sel_start, sel_end, and sel_cons)
are protected only in set_selection_user. The other functions need quite
some more work to close the races of the variables there. This is going
to happen later.
This likely fixes (I am unsure as there is no reproducer provided) bug

When pasting a selection to a vt, the task is set as INTERRUPTIBLE while
waiting for a tty to unthrottle. But signals are not handled at all.
Normally, this is not a problem as tty_ldisc_receive_buf receives all
the goods and a user has no reason to interrupt the task.
There are two scenarios where this matters:
1) when the tty is throttled and a signal is sent to the process, it
spins on a CPU until the tty is unthrottled. schedule() does not
really echedule, but returns immediately, of course.
2) when the sel_buffer becomes invalid, KASAN prevents any reads from it
and the loop simply does not proceed and spins forever (causing the
tty to throttle, but the code never sleeps, the same as above). This
sometimes happens as there is a race in the sel_buffer handling code.
So add signal handling to this ioctl (TIOCL_PASTESEL) and return -EINTR
in case a signal is pending.

Christophe reports that powerpc 8xx silently fails to 5.6-rc1. It turns
out I was wrong about nobody relying on the lazy initialization of the
cpm/qe muram in commit b6231ea2b3c6 (soc: fsl: qe: drop broken lazy
call of cpm_muram_init()).
Rather than reinstating the somewhat dubious lazy call (initializing a
currently held spinlock, and implicitly doing a GFP_KERNEL under that
spinlock), make sure that cpm_muram_init() is called early enough - I
thought the calls from the subsys_initcalls were good enough, but when
used by console drivers, that's obviously not the
case. cpm_muram_init() is safe to call twice (there's an early return
if it is already initialized), so keep the call from cpm_init() - in
case SERIAL_CPM_CONSOLE=n.

The commit 54e53b2e8081
("tty: serial: 8250: pass IRQ shared flag to UART ports")
nicely explained the problem:
---8<---8<---
On some systems IRQ lines between multiple UARTs might be shared. If so, the
irqflags have to be configured accordingly. The reason is: The 8250 port startup
code performs IRQ tests *before* the IRQ handler for that particular port is
registered. This is performed in serial8250_do_startup(). This function checks
whether IRQF_SHARED is configured and only then disables the IRQ line while
testing.
This test is performed upon each open() of the UART device. Imagine two UARTs
share the same IRQ line: On is already opened and the IRQ is active. When the
second UART is opened, the IRQ line has to be disabled while performing IRQ
tests. Otherwise an IRQ might handler might be invoked, but the IRQ itself
cannot be handled, because the corresponding handler isn't registered,
yet. That's because the 8250 code uses a chain-handler and invokes the
corresponding port's IRQ handling routines himself.
Unfortunately this IRQF_SHARED flag isn't configured for UARTs probed via device
tree even if the IRQs are shared. This way, the actual and shared IRQ line isn't
disabled while performing tests and the kernel correctly detects a spurious
IRQ. So, adding this flag to the DT probe solves the issue.
Note: The UPF_SHARE_IRQ flag is configured unconditionally. Therefore, the
IRQF_SHARED flag can be set unconditionally as well.
Example stack trace by performing `echo 1 > /dev/ttyS2` on a non-patched system:
|irq 85: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)
| [...]
|handlers:
|[<ffff0000080fc628>] irq_default_primary_handler threaded [<ffff00000855fbb8>] serial8250_interrupt
|Disabling IRQ #85
---8<---8<---
But unfortunately didn't fix the root cause. Let's try again here by moving
IRQ flag assignment from serial_link_irq_chain() to serial8250_do_startup().
This should fix the similar issue reported for 8250_pnp case.
Since this change we don't need to have custom solutions in 8250_aspeed_vuart
and 8250_of drivers, thus, drop them.

Commit a6dbe4427559 ("vt: perform safe console erase in the right
order") provided fixes to an earlier commit by gathering all console
scrollback flushing operations in a function of its own. This includes
the invocation of vc_sw->con_switch() as previously done through a
update_screen() call. That commit failed to carry over the
con_is_visible() conditional though, as well as cursor handling, which
caused problems when "\e[3J" was written to a background console.
One could argue for preserving the call to update_screen(). However
this does far more than we need, and it is best to remove scrollback
assumptions from it. Instead let's gather the minimum needed to actually
perform scrollback flushing properly in that one place.
While at it, let's document the vc_sw->con_switch() side effect being
relied upon.

Define the OF early console for BCM2835 aux UART, which can be enabled
by passing "earlycon" on the boot command line. This UART is found on
BCM283x and BCM27xx SoCs, a.k.a. Raspberry Pi in its variants.
