Set em485->active_timer = NULL isn't always enough to take out the stop timer. While there is a check that it acts in the right state (i.e. waiting for RTS-after-send to pass after sending some chars) but the following might happen: - CPU1: some chars send, shifter becomes empty, stop tx timer armed - CPU0: more chars send before RTS-after-send expired - CPU0: shifter empty irq, port lock taken - CPU1: tx timer triggers, waits for port lock - CPU0: em485->active_timer = &em485->stop_tx_timer, hrtimer_start(), releases lock() - CPU1: get lock, see em485->active_timer == &em485->stop_tx_timer, tear down RTS too early This fix bases on research done by Steffen Trumtrar.
