[PATCH v2 0/5] tty/serial: at91: fix bugs when using multiple serials

From: Leilei Zhao
Date: Fri Feb 27 2015 - 03:09:44 EST


The series of patches fix bugs when using multiple serial ports at the same time:
- The using rx ring buffer in DMA is inconsistent with its allocation.
- The serial port can't send and receive data when it's opened the second time
and the later if it switches to PIO when DMA channel is not available.
- The serial port can lead to kernel crash when data is sending and receiving
and the program is killed.

The patches were made from branch tty-next of gregkh/tty.git repository, and
tested on a SAMA5D36 VB boards with 5 serial ports enabled.

Changes from v1:
- Use macro PAGE_ALIGNED to simplify the expression.

Leilei Zhao (5):
tty/serial: at91: correct check of buf used in DMA
tty/serial: at91: correct buffer size used in DMA
tty/serial: at91: revise the return type of atmel_init_property
tty/serial: at91: set ops in property init each time
tty/serial: at91: correct the usage of tasklet
