[38/53] USB: Fix Corruption issue in USB ftdi driver ftdi_sio.c

From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Nov 22 2011 - 19:43:39 EST


3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andrew Worsley <amworsley@xxxxxxxxx>

commit b1ffb4c851f185e9051ba837c16d9b84ef688d26 upstream.

Fix for ftdi_set_termios() glitching output

ftdi_set_termios() is constantly setting the baud rate, data bits and parity
unnecessarily on every call, . When called while characters are being
transmitted can cause the FTDI chip to corrupt the serial port bit stream
output by stalling the output half a bit during the output of a character.
Simple fix by skipping this setting if the baud rate/data bits/parity are
unchanged.
