    Subject[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.10 111/116] serial: core: Keep mctrl register state and cached copy in sync
    Date
    From: Lukas Wunner <lukas@wunner.de>

    [ Upstream commit 93a770b7e16772530196674ffc79bb13fa927dc6 ]

    struct uart_port contains a cached copy of the Modem Control signals.
    It is used to skip register writes in uart_update_mctrl() if the new
    signal state equals the old signal state. It also avoids a register
    read to obtain the current state of output signals.

    When a uart_port is registered, uart_configure_port() changes signal
    state but neglects to keep the cached copy in sync. That may cause
    a subsequent register write to be incorrectly skipped. Fix it before
    it trips somebody up.

    This behavior has been present ever since the serial core was introduced
    in 2002:
    https://git.kernel.org/history/history/c/33c0d1b0c3eb

    So far it was never an issue because the cached copy is initialized to 0
    by kzalloc() and when uart_configure_port() is executed, at most DTR has
    been set by uart_set_options() or sunsu_console_setup(). Therefore,
    a stable designation seems unnecessary.
