[PATCH 1/1] serial: mcf: Don't take spinlocks in already protected functions

From: ygeorgie
Date: Wed Jun 09 2010 - 03:56:49 EST


From: Yury Georgievskiy <ygeorgie@xxxxxxxxx>

Don't take the port spinlock in uart functions where the serial core
already takes care of locking/unlocking them.

The code would actually lock up on architectures where spinlocks are
implemented.

Also protect calling mcf_rx_chars/mcf_tx_chars in the
interrupt handler by the port spinlock and use IRQ_RETVAL
to return from isr.
