[PATCH v2 4/7] serial: core: add sysfs attribute to suppress ready signalling on open

From: Johan Hovold
Date: Wed Dec 02 2020 - 06:40:48 EST


Add a nordy sysfs attribute to suppress raising the modem-control lines
on open to signal DTE readiness.

This can be used to prevent undesirable side-effects on open for
applications where the DTR and RTS lines are used for non-standard
purposes such as generating power-on and reset pulses.
