[PATCH] USB: serial: cp210x: suppress modem-control error on open and close

From: Johan Hovold
Date: Thu Jan 21 2021 - 05:36:22 EST


The CP210X_SET_MHS request cannot be used to control DTR/RTS when
hardware flow control is enabled and instead returns an error which is
currently logged as:

cp210x ttyUSB0: failed set request 0x7 status: -32

Add a crtscts flag to keep track of the hardware flow-control setting
and use it to suppress the request in dtr_rts().

Note that both lines are still deasserted when disabling the UART as
part of close().

Also note that TIOCMSET is left unchanged and will continue to return an
error to user-space when flow control is enabled (i.e. instead of
disabling and re-enabling auto-RTS when RTS is deasserted and
re-asserted).
