You obviously did not test this patch *at all* since the kernel now
oopses immediately when opening the port due to a NULL-pointer
dereference. And that's not the only bug in this patch (see below).
I rewrote the termios handling in an attempt to help you implement this
properly (e.g. instead of having you add the pieces to
cp210x_get_termios() that were missing from your initial submission),
but clearly this didn't work out as intended.
Normally I would have just asked you to fix your patch, but this is has
taken way too much of my time already. And while it's never ok to send
completely untested patches without even mentioning it, I still feel
partly responsible for they way things turned out (if you no longer have
access to the hardware, or whatever, you should have said so).
So to get this over with, I've reworked your patch properly for you and
added some further missing pieces (e.g. at least on CP2102 the XON/XOFF
threshold needs to be set for input flow control to work).
I'll post it all as a series after replying here.

This pointer isn't needed, for some reason you use it instead of the buf

You didn't update this conditional, which means that the software
flow-control settings could only be changed by reopening a port or
changing the *hardware* flow-control setting (!).
You also didn't update the cp210x_termios_change() helper, which I
explicitly told you to do, which means that this function isn't even
called when only the IXON and IXOFF flags change.

And here's an even bigger problem, which clearly shows that you didn't
test this at all:
This dereference will cause an oops as old_termios is NULL here when
set_termios() is called from open().

You never clear special_chars, which means that you're setting the other
control characters to random data from the stack.

And why are you fetching the flow-control settings again when this has
just been done a few lines above when handling CRTSCTS?

Same here, you only need to store the updates settings once for both
hardware and software flow control.

I've fixed all of this up as can be seen below.
In the future, always test your patches and don't ignore review
feedback.

Subject: [PATCH 1/6] USB: serial: cp210x: add support for software flow
control
When data is transmitted between two serial ports, the phenomenon of
data loss often occurs. The two kinds of flow control commonly used in
serial communication are hardware flow control and software flow
control.
In serial communication, If you only use RX/TX/GND Pins, you can't do
hardware flow. So we often used software flow control and prevent data
loss. The user sets the software flow control through the application
program, and the application program sets the software flow control mode
for the serial port chip through the driver.
For the cp210 serial port chip, its driver lacks the software flow
control setting code, so the user cannot set the software flow control
function through the application program. This adds the missing software
flow control.
