[PATCH] serial: fix termios settings in open

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Tue Jun 29 2010 - 16:31:59 EST


Move termios initialization in open into uart_dtr_rts to make sure
it always gets called when necessary. Based on a suggestion from
Alan Cox.

Alan writes:
Ok this sort of makes sense. Something isn't getting initialised and both
getty and minicom will do a termios set which is sorting it out.
This is occurring because the generic block_til_ready sets
ASYNCB_NORMAL_ACTIVE so the termios updating gets skipped.

This patch should cure it and then we can think about doing it more
elegantly by getting the serial layer to use tty_port_open, kfifo and
the like and removing the tons of repeated crap in all the drivers.

Greg, please apply to you tty series. I thought there was a bug
in this patch but it turns out that this was incorrect. There
is still something fishy on my system with hardware flow control,
but it seems to be a preexisting condition, so this patch is actually
good, unlike what I said before. Please apply next to "serial: Use
block_til_ready helper", which introduces the ploblem.
