[PATCH next v1] serial: msm_serial: disable interrupts in __msm_console_write()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



__msm_console_write() assumes that interrupts are disabled, but
with threaded console printers it is possible that the write()
callback of the console is called with interrupts enabled.

Explicitly disable interrupts using local_irq_save() to preserve
the assumed context.

 Note: I checked the other serial drivers and this was the only
       one that assumed interrupts off for write().
