What is going to remove the sysfs file you just created above (in a racy
way, it's broken and needs to be fixed, but that's a different issue
here...)?

Does this remove the sysfs file?
The loopback file isn't documented. It isn't removed when the driver is
removed either. Can we just remove the whole thing? It would be nicer if
that sort of thing was supported in the tty layer somehow. Is it?
I don't know what that file does, so yes, please delete it :)
This sysfs file was exposed to user to configure hardware to run in
loopback mode (sorting TX and RX lines).
We use this mode to sanity test TX and RX path of the driver after
making any code changes.
But we can remove this sysfs file and use TIOCM_LOOP to set HW in
loopback mode as suggested by stephen.
And as for support in the tty layer itself, if you figure out what it
does, sure, we can add support if needed.
I think it may be supported in the tty layer with TIOCM_LOOP already.
Akash, can you confirm?
Yeah, its already supported in tty layer. We can call TIOCMSET ioctl
from user space test application with TIOCM_LOOP argument to configure
our HW in loopback mode.
I will remove all the code related to loopback sysfs.
Thanks for this suggestion.
