This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled serial: 8250: Discard RTS/DTS setting from clock update method to the 5.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: serial-8250-discard-rts-dts-setting-from-clock-updat.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit a7eb267b603a759a389b68e33b36dbdc066212b9 Author: Serge Semin <Sergey.Semin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Sep 23 19:19:48 2020 +0300 serial: 8250: Discard RTS/DTS setting from clock update method [ Upstream commit 7718453e36960dadb8dc46f2b514b309659e1270 ] It has been a mistake to add the MCR register RTS/DTS fields setting in the generic method of the UART reference clock update. There is no point in asserting these lines at that procedure. Just discard the serial8250_out_MCR() mathod invocation from there then.
