[PATCH 1/4] serial: core: Add wakeup() and start_pending_tx() for power management

From: Tony Lindgren
Date: Thu Sep 30 2021 - 02:29:23 EST


If the serial driver implements PM runtime with autosuspend, the port may
be powered down on TX. To wake up the port, let's add new wakeup() call
for serial drivers to implement as needed. We can call wakeup() from
__uart_start() and flow control related functions before attempting to
write to the serial port registers.

Let's keep track of the serial port with a new runtime_suspended flag
that the device driver runtime PM suspend and resume can manage with
atomic_set(). This is because only the device driver knows what the
device runtime PM state as in Documentation/power/runtime_pm.rst
under "9. Autosuspend, or automatically-delayed suspend" for locking.

To allow the serial port drivers to send out pending tx on runtime PM
resume, let's add start_pending_tx() as suggested by Johan Hovold
<johan@xxxxxxxxxx>.
