When the host lets us know what 'name' a port is assigned, we create the
sysfs 'name' attribute. Generate a 'change' event after this so that
udev wakes up and acts on the rules for virtio-ports (currently there's
only one rule that creates a symlink from the 'name' to the actual char
device).

Commit e1108a63e1 ("usb_serial: Use the
shutdown() operation") breaks the ability to use a usb console
starting in 2.6.33. This was observed when using
console=ttyUSB0,115200 as a boot argument with an FTDI device. The
error is:
ftdi_sio ttyUSB0: ftdi_submit_read_urb - failed submitting read urb, error -22
The handling of the ASYNCB_INITIALIZED changed in 2.6.32 such that in
tty_port_shutdown() it always clears the flag if it is set. The fix
is to add a variable to the tty_port struct to indicate when the tty
port is a console.

Alan pointed out a race in the code where hvc_remove is invoked. The
recent virtio_console work is the first user of hvc_remove().
Alan describes it thus:
The hvc_console assumes that a close and remove call can't occur at the
same time.
In addition tty_hangup(tty) is problematic as tty_hangup is asynchronous
itself....
So this can happen
hvc_close hvc_remove
hung up ? - no
lock
tty = hp->tty
unlock
lock
hp->tty = NULL
unlock
notify del
kref_put the hvc struct
close completes
tty is destroyed
tty_hangup dead tty
tty->ops will be NULL
NULL->...
This patch adds some tty krefs and also converts to using tty_vhangup().

This reverts commit eec9fe7d1a.
Ari writes as the reason this should be reverted:
The problems with this patch include:
1. There's at least one subtlety I overlooked - switching
between X servers (i.e. from one X VT to another) still requires
the cooperation of both X servers. I was assuming that KMS
eliminated this.
2. It hasn't been tested at all (no X server patch exists which
uses the new mode).
As he was the original author of the patch, I'll revert it.

de957628ce changed setting of the
x86_init.iommu.iommu_init function ptr only when GART IOMMU is
found.
One side effect of it is that num_k8_northbridges
is not initialized anymore if not explicitly
called. This resulted in uninitialized pointers in
<arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c:amd_calc_l3_indices()>,
for example, which uses the num_k8_northbridges thing through
node_to_k8_nb_misc().
Fix that through an initcall that runs right after the PCI
subsystem and does all the scanning. Then, remove initialization
in gart_iommu_init() which is a rootfs_initcall and we're
running before that.
What is more, since num_k8_northbridges is being used in other
places beside GART IOMMU, include it whenever we add AMD CPU
support. The previous dependency chain in kconfig contained
K8_NB depends on AGP_AMD64|GART_IOMMU
which was clearly incorrect. The more natural way in terms of
hardware dependency should be
AGP_AMD64|GART_IOMMU depends on K8_NB depends on CPU_SUP_AMD &&
PCI. Make it so Number One!

This new VT mode (VT_PROCESS_AUTO) does everything that VT_PROCESS does
except that it doesn't wait for a VT_RELDISP ioctl before switching
away from a VT with that mode.
If the X server eventually uses this new mode, debugging and crash
recovery should become easier. This is because even when currently in
the VT of a frozen X server it would still be possible to switch out
by doing SysRq-r and then CTRL-<number of a text vt>, sshing in and
doing chvt <number of a text vt>, or any other method of VT switching.
The general concensus on #xorg-devel seems to be that it should be
safe to use this with X now that we have KMS.
This also moves the VT_ACKACQ define to a more appropriate place,
for clarity's sake.

This was noticed by Matthias Urlichs and he proposed a fix. This patch
does the fixing a different way to avoid introducing several new race
conditions into the code.
The problem case is TTY_DRIVER_RESET_TERMIOS = 0. In that case while we
abort the ldisc change, the hangup processing has not cleaned up and restarted
the ldisc either.
We can't restart the ldisc stuff in the set_ldisc as we don't know what
the hangup did and may touch stuff we shouldn't as we are no longer
supposed to influence the tty at that point in case it has been re-opened
before we get rescheduled.
Instead do it the simple way. Always re-init the ldisc on the hangup, but
use TTY_DRIVER_RESET_TERMIOS to indicate that we should force N_TTY.

The Nozomi tty handling is very broken on the open/close side (See

particular it marks the tty as closed on the first close() not on the last.
Most of the logic is pretty solid except for the open/close path so switch
to the tty_port helpers and let them do all the heavy lifting. This is also

Fix transmit bug that could drop send data if write() called close to
serial transmitter going idle after sending previous data. Bug is caused
by incorrect use of device information member tx_count.
Driver originally processed one data block (write call) at a time, waiting
for transmit idle before sending more. tx_count recorded how much data
was loaded in DMA buffers on write(), and was cleared on send completion.
tx_count use was overloaded to record accumulated data from put_char()
callback when transmitter was idle.
A bug was introduced when transmit code was reworked to allow multiple
blocks of data in the tx DMA buffers which keeps transmitter from going
idle between blocks. tx_count was set to size of last block loaded,
cleared when tx went idle, and monitored to know when to restart
transmitter without proper synchronization. tx_count could be cleared
when unsent data remained in DMA buffers and transmitter required
restarting, effectively dropping unsent data.
Solution:
1. tx_count now used only to track accumulated data from put_char
2. DMA buffer state tracked by direct inspection of descriptors
with spinlock synchronization
3. consolidate these tasks in tx_load() :
a. check for available buffer space
b. load buffers
c. restart DMA and or serial transmitter as needed
These steps were previously duplicated in multiple places,
sometimes incompletely.
4. fix use of tx_count as active transmit indicator,
instead using tx_active which is meant for that purpose
