[PATCH 79/79] USB serial: update the console driver

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sat Sep 19 2009 - 17:45:50 EST


From: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch (as1292) modifies the USB serial console driver, to make it
compatible with the recent changes to the USB serial core. The most
important change is that serial->disc_mutex now has to be unlocked
following a successful call to usb_serial_get_by_index().

Other less notable changes include:

Use the requested port number instead of port 0 always.

Prevent the serial device from being autosuspended.

Use the ASYNCB_INITIALIZED flag bit to indicate when the
port hardware has been initialized.

In spite of these changes, there's no question that the USB serial
console code is still a big hack.
