In the previous commit, console write function (serial_console_write)
is changed to disable SCI interrupts while printing console strings.
This introduces possible race cases in the serial startup / shutdown
functions on SMP systems.
This patch fixes the sh-sci in the same way as commit 9ec1882df2
(tty: serial: imx: console write routing is unsafe on SMP, from
Xinyu Chen <xinyu.chen@freescale.com>, 2012-08-27) did.
There could be several consumers of the console,
* the kernel printk
* the init process using /dev/kmsg to call printk to show log
* shell, which opens /dev/console and writes with sys_write()
The shell goes into the normal UART open() and write() system calls,
while the other two go into the console operations. The open() call
invokes serial startup function (sci_startup), which will write to
the SCSCR register (to enable or disable SCI interrupts) without any
locking. This will conflict with the console serial function.
Add spinlock protections in sci_startup() and sci_shutdown() properly.
