Subject: [PATCH 4.19 110/118] gnss: sirf: fix synchronous write timeout

4.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hovold <johan@...nel.org>

commit 1decef370456870bf448a565be95db636428e106 upstream.

Passing a timeout of zero to the synchronous serdev_device_write()
helper does currently not imply to wait forever (unlike passing zero to
serdev_device_wait_until_sent()). Instead, if there's insufficient
room in the write buffer, we'd end up with an incomplete write.

Fixes: d2efbbd18b1e ("gnss: add driver for sirfstar-based receivers")
Cc: stable <stable@...r.kernel.org>     # 4.19
