The first amba port does not always have an attached tty, which will result in a crash if the work-around is activated. This seems to be the case for example on Snowball which has no modem hw, which seems to be the main use-case for this work-around. --- drivers/tty/serial/amba-pl011.c | 4 ++++ 1 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)Can you re-read Documentation/SubmittingPatches and resend this patch with the needed information so that I can apply it (hint, you forgot a signed-off-by: line...)
Ah, sorry for that. But actually I was alerted to a plan to eradicate the whole workaround so this patch can be left unapplied. I will follow up with a new submission if that doesn't happen soon.
