From d3755f5e6cd222cd5aff949228d32aa8446023a5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lars-Peter Clausen Date: Thu, 17 Oct 2013 14:08:09 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] tty: xuartps: Force enable the UART in xuartps_console_write It is possible that under certain circumstances xuartps_console_write is entered while the UART disabled. When this happens the code will busy loop in xuartps_console_putchar, since the character is never written and the TXEMPTY flag is never set. The result is a system lockup. This patch force enables the UART for the duration of xuartps_console_write to avoid this.
