The 8250 handle_irq callback is not just called from the interrupt handler but also from a timer callback when polling (e.g. for ports without an interrupt line). Consequently the callback must explicitly disable interrupts to avoid a potential deadlock with another interrupt in polled mode. Fix up the two paths in the freescale callback that failed to re-enable interrupts when polling.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
