This is not an issue caused by anohter commits.
There was potential issue from the beginning.

Other drivers were fixed, but samsung_tty was not.
PL011 patch : https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/2/1/495

It is return value of spin_trylock()
I used int because mose drivers used int.
If you guide to change int to bool, I will change it.

No special reason.
I will change spin_trylock() -? spin_trylock_irqsave().
spin_lock -> spin_lock_irqsave().
And, remove local_irq_save/restore.
It looks more clean.
