[PATCH 24/36] serial: return -EINVAL for non-legacy RS485 flags

From: Ilpo Järvinen
Date: Mon Jun 06 2022 - 06:08:53 EST


In order to be add new flags more cleanly and safely, return -EINVAL
from TIOCSRS485 ioctl for the flags bits which are not among the
current legacy ones.

This might cause a regression for userspace as those non-flag bits do
not currently trigger -EINVAL. However, it would only occur if the
userspace is sending garbage bits so perhaps we'll get away with this
change.
