[PATCH 3/3] tty: serial: 8250: omap: synchronize rx_running

From: John Ogness
Date: Mon Apr 27 2015 - 07:52:47 EST


The rx_running flag should show if DMA is currently active. However
there is a window between when the flag is set/cleared and when
the DMA is started/stopped. Because the flag is queried from both
hard and soft irq contexts, the driver can make incorrect
decisions and do things like start a DMA transfer using a buffer
that is already setup to be used for a DMA transfer.

This patch adds a spinlock to synchronize the rx_running flag and
close the above mentioned window.
