3.13.11-ckt26 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Tilman Schmidt <tilman@xxxxxxx> commit fd98e9419d8d622a4de91f76b306af6aa627aa9c upstream. Commit 79901317ce80 ("n_tty: Don't flush buffer when closing ldisc"), first merged in kernel release 3.10, caused the following regression in the Gigaset M101 driver: Before that commit, when closing the N_TTY line discipline in preparation to switching to N_GIGASET_M101, receive_room would be reset to a non-zero value by the call to n_tty_flush_buffer() in n_tty's close method. With the removal of that call, receive_room might be left at zero, blocking data reception on the serial line. The present patch fixes that regression by setting receive_room to an appropriate value in the ldisc open method.
