[PATCH v2 1/2] serial: 8250_early: do not save and restore IER in write callback

From: Masahiro Yamada <hidden>
Date: 2015-10-24 04:18:25
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: 8250/16?50 (and clone uarts) serial driver, the rest, tty layer and serial drivers · Maintainers: Greg Kroah-Hartman, Linus Torvalds, Jiri Slaby

The IER has already been masked in early_serial8250_setup(), there is
no reason to save and restore it every time early_serial8250_write()
is called.
