[ Upstream commit 36ef11d311f405e55ad8e848c19b212ff71ef536 ]

CHECK drivers/tty/serial/cpm_uart/cpm_uart_core.c
drivers/tty/serial/cpm_uart/cpm_uart_core.c:1271:39: warning: context imbalance in 'cpm_uart_console_write' - unexpected unlock

Allthough 'nolock' is not expected to change, sparse find the following
form suspicious:

if (unlikely(nolock)) {
local_irq_save(flags);
} else {
spin_lock_irqsave(&pinfo->port.lock, flags);
}

cpm_uart_early_write(pinfo, s, count, true);

if (unlikely(nolock)) {
local_irq_restore(flags);
} else {
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&pinfo->port.lock, flags);
}

Rewrite it a more obvious form:

if (unlikely(oops_in_progress)) {
local_irq_save(flags);
cpm_uart_early_write(pinfo, s, count, true);
local_irq_restore(flags);
} else {
spin_lock_irqsave(&pinfo->port.lock, flags);
cpm_uart_early_write(pinfo, s, count, true);
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&pinfo->port.lock, flags);
}
