This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled tty: serial: altera_uart_{r,t}x_chars() need only uart_port to the 4.19-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: tty-serial-altera_uart_-r-t-x_chars-need-only-uart_p.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.19 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit baedaac3920fcc03e342cb74381a96c569462814 Author: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Sep 20 07:20:43 2022 +0200 tty: serial: altera_uart_{r,t}x_chars() need only uart_port [ Upstream commit 3af44d9bb0539d5fa27d6159d696fda5f3747bff ] Both altera_uart_{r,t}x_chars() need only uart_port, not altera_uart. So pass the former from altera_uart_interrupt() directly. Apart it maybe saves a dereference, this makes the transition of altera_uart_tx_chars() easier to follow in the next patch.
