This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled USB: io_ti: fix chars_in_buffer overhead to the 3.9-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: usb-io_ti-fix-chars_in_buffer-overhead.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From b16634adce951a7371be931487034f7365971ed0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold <jhovold@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 5 May 2013 20:32:31 +0200 Subject: USB: io_ti: fix chars_in_buffer overhead From: Johan Hovold <jhovold@xxxxxxxxx> commit b16634adce951a7371be931487034f7365971ed0 upstream. Use the new generic usb-serial wait_until_sent implementation to wait for hardware buffers to drain. This removes the need to check the hardware buffers in chars_in_buffer and thus removes the overhead introduced by commit 263e1f9f ("USB: io_ti: query hardware-buffer status in chars_in_buffer") without breaking tty_wait_until_sent (used by, for example, tcdrain, tcsendbreak and close).
