True, the race is possible. But I guess there will be no harm: only non-polling code uses ->start_tx(), but then we don't care, the port is used for NMI debugger, so the worst that can happen, is that we'll get another NMI just after the race, and so we'll mask it again. And once we release the port from KDB, we never call this function anymore (since normal IRQ routine will be called instead). I guess I need to add some commens about this. Thanks!

It's all pretty straightforward, except for TXIM interrupt. The interrupt has meaning "ready to transmit", so it's almost always raised, and the only way to silence it is to mask it. But that's OK, ops->start_tx will unmask it. Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov <anton.vorontsov@linaro.org> --- drivers/tty/serial/amba-pl011.c | 13 +++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+)
