For the case of console_suspend disabled, if back to back suspend/resume
test is executed, at the end of test, sometimes console would appear to
be frozen not responding to input. This would happen because, during
resume, rx transactions can come in before system is ready, malfunction
of rx happens in turn resulting in console appearing to be stuck.

Do a stop_rx in suspend sequence to prevent this.

v4: moved the change to serial core to apply for all drivers
v3: swapped the order of conditions to be more human readable
v2: restricted patch to contain only stop_rx in suspend sequence
v1: intial patch contained 2 additional unrelated changes in vicinity

This patch landed recently in linux-next as commit c9d2325cdb92
("serial: core: Do stop_rx in suspend path for console if
console_suspend is disabled").

Unfortunately it breaks console operation on my test systems after
system suspend/resume cycle if 'no_console_suspend' kernel parameter is
present. System properly resumes from suspend, the console displays all
the messages and even command line prompt, but then doesn't react on any
input. If I remove the 'no_console_suspend' parameter, the console is
again operational after system suspend/resume cycle. Before this patch
it worked fine regardless the 'no_console_suspend' parameter.
Did this ever get resolved or do I need to revert this?

We have a resolution and I will be uploading a Fixes: patch today.

Thank you.
