This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled tty: use 'if' in send_break() instead of 'goto' to the 5.10-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-use-if-in-send_break-instead-of-goto.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 8af6f242e3bcfa8e07e29646e5b7cbd4e93b4324 Author: Jiri Slaby (SUSE) <jirislaby@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Sep 19 10:51:56 2023 +0200 tty: use 'if' in send_break() instead of 'goto' [ Upstream commit 24f2cd019946fc2e88e632d2e24a34c2cc3f2be4 ] Now, the "jumped-over" code is simple enough to be put inside an 'if'. Do so to make it 'goto'-less.
