Subject: serial: sh-sci: Fix late enablement of AUTORTS
From: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 5f76895e4c712b1b5af450cf344389b8c53ac2c2 upstream.
When changing hardware control flow for a UART with dedicated RTS/CTS
pins, the new AUTORTS state is not immediately reflected in the
hardware, but only when RTS is raised. However, the serial core does
not call .set_mctrl() after .set_termios(), hence AUTORTS may only
become effective when the port is closed, and reopened later.
Note that this problem does not happen when manually using stty to
change CRTSCTS, as AUTORTS will work fine on next open.
To fix this, call .set_mctrl() from .set_termios() when dedicated
RTS/CTS pins are present, to refresh the AUTORTS or RTS state.
This is similar to what other drivers supporting AUTORTS do (e.g.
omap-serial).
