This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
tty: serial: add missing spin_lock_init for SiFive serial console
to my tty git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git
in the tty-linus branch.
The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)
The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: tty: serial: add missing spin_lock_init for SiFive serial console
An uninitialised spin lock for sifive serial console raises a bad
magic spin_lock error as reported and discussed here [1].
Initialising the spin lock resolves the issue.
The fix is tested on HiFive Unleashed A00 board with Linux 5.7-rc4
and OpenSBI v0.7
