This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    serial: pch: don't overwrite xmit->buf[0] by x_char

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-next 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 also be merged in the next major kernel release
during the merge window.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: serial: pch: don't overwrite xmit->buf[0] by x_char

When x_char is to be sent, the TX path overwrites whatever is in the
circular buffer at offset 0 with x_char and sends it using
pch_uart_hal_write(). I don't understand how this was supposed to work
if xmit->buf[0] already contained some character. It must have been
lost.

Remove this whole pop_tx_x() concept and do the work directly in the
callers. (Without printing anything using dev_dbg().)
