Ulrich Hecht a6a8916de0 serial: sh-sci: prevent lockup on full TTY buffers
commit 7842055bfce4bf0170d0f61df8b2add8399697be upstream.

When the TTY buffers fill up to the configured maximum, a system lockup
occurs:

[  598.820128] INFO: rcu_preempt detected stalls on CPUs/tasks:
[  598.825796]  0-...!: (1 GPs behind) idle=5a6/2/0 softirq=1974/1974 fqs=1
[  598.832577]  (detected by 3, t=62517 jiffies, g=296, c=295, q=126)
[  598.838755] Task dump for CPU 0:

[  598.851476]  __switch_to+0x98/0xb0
[  598.854870]            (null)

This can be prevented by doing a dummy read of the RX data register.

This issue affects both HSCIF and SCIF ports. Reported for R-Car H3 ES2.0;
reproduced and fixed on H3 ES1.1. Probably affects other R-Car platforms
as well.

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.
