The patch titled zs.c: drain the transmission line has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was zsc-drain-the-transmission-line.patch This patch was dropped because the drop of zs-move-to-the-serial-subsystem.patch wrecked it ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: zs.c: drain the transmission line From: "Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> This is an update to the zs.c driver to make it wait for the transmission line to become idle before disabling the transmitter or resetting the chip. This way the character that is on the way at the time one of these actions is about to be performed does not get corrupted. Plus a change to reset the index/data pointer first before issuing a chip reset just in case the state is wrong when control of the chip is taken the first time. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.
