[PATCH REPOST 2/2] serial/amba-pl011: Leave the TX IRQ alone when the UART is not open

From: Dave.Martin@arm.com (Dave Martin)
Date: 2015-03-04 12:27:34
Also in: linux-serial
Subsystem: arm primecell uart pl010 and pl011 drivers, the rest, tty layer and serial drivers · Maintainers: Russell King, Linus Torvalds, Greg Kroah-Hartman, Jiri Slaby

Getting the TX IRQ re-asserted from scratch can be inefficient in
some setups.

This patch avoids clearing the TX IRQ across pl011_shutdown()...
pl011_startup(), so that if the port is closed and reopened, the
IRQ will still work afterwards without having to bootstrap it again.

The TX IRQ continues to be masked in IMSC when the UART is not in
use.
