Alan asked to be dropped.

This is the existing behavior of the serial core.

uart_hangup() -> uart_shutdown()

static void uart_shutdown(struct tty_struct *tty, struct uart_state *state)
{
	struct uart_port *uport = state->uart_port;
	struct tty_port *port = &state->port;

	/*
	 * Set the TTY IO error marker
	 */
	if (tty)
		set_bit(TTY_IO_ERROR, &tty->flags);

	if (test_and_clear_bit(ASYNCB_INITIALIZED, &port->flags)) {
		/*
		 * Turn off DTR and RTS early.
		 */
		if (!tty || (tty->termios.c_cflag & HUPCL))
====>			uart_clear_mctrl(uport, TIOCM_DTR | TIOCM_RTS);

		uart_port_shutdown(port);
	}

Nothing. That's why it's tested in tty_port_shutdown() above.

I did.

It makes sense to wake blocked opens only _after_ the port has been
shutdown. This way any blocked opens wake up, discover the port has been
shutdown and exit their wait loops in xxxxxx_block_til_ready().

Similarly for delta_msr_wait. Although I think the delta_msr_wait loop
is already unsafe (or at least not robust).
