When userspace opens the console, we call set_termios() passing a termios with the console's configured baud rate. Currently this causes dw8250_set_termios() to disable and then re-enable the UART clock at the same frequency as it was originally. This can cause corruption of any concurrent console output. Fix it by skipping the reclocking if we are already at the correct rate.

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.
