Subject: [PATCH 4.9 029/102] USB: cdc-acm: fix rounding error in TIOCSSERIAL

From: Anthony Mallet <anthony.mallet@...s.fr>

[ Upstream commit b401f8c4f492cbf74f3f59c9141e5be3071071bb ]

By default, tty_port_init() initializes those parameters to a multiple
of HZ. For instance in line 69 of tty_port.c:
   port->close_delay = (50 * HZ) / 100;
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/tty/tty_port.c#L69

With e.g. CONFIG_HZ = 250 (as this is the case for Ubuntu 18.04
linux-image-4.15.0-37-generic), the default setting for close_delay is
thus 125.

When ioctl(fd, TIOCGSERIAL, &s) is executed, the setting returned in
user space is '12' (125/10). When ioctl(fd, TIOCSSERIAL, &s) is then
executed with the same setting '12', the value is interpreted as '120'
which is different from the current setting and a EPERM error may be
raised by set_serial_info() if !CAP_SYS_ADMIN.
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/usb/class/cdc-acm.c#L919
