[ Upstream commit e4bfded56cf39b8d02733c1e6ef546b97961e18a ] Symptom: application opens /dev/ttyGS0 and starts sending (writing) to it while either USB cable is not connected, or nobody listens on the other side of the cable. If driver circular buffer overflows before connection is established, no data will be written to the USB layer until/unless /dev/ttyGS0 is closed and re-opened again by the application (the latter besides having no means of being notified about the event of establishing of the connection.) Fix: on open and/or connect, kick Tx to flush circular buffer data to USB layer.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
