I see this was merged. Since I was not sure this patch is OK after your comment, I reviewed the code now. It shouldn't be an issue right now, exactly as you wrote. I.e. the device is stopped, ISR synchronized and even then ->hangup sets tty to NULL. I have a patch in my queue which converts all these guys to tty_port_tty_get. This is needed before I can use tty_port_hangup obviously. It is because the order there is opposite (set tty to NULL, then shutdown everybody). thanks for review, -- js -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-serial" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
