Subject: Re: [PATCH v6 2/2] serial:sunplus-uart:Add Sunplus SoC UART Driver

Hi, Greg KH:

I review all driver again.
I think only startup and shutdown not good.
I will modify like below.
If you are ok, I will submit next patch.

static int sunplus_startup(struct uart_port *port)
{
        unsigned long flags;
        unsigned int isc;
        int ret;

        ret = request_irq(port->irq, sunplus_uart_irq, 0, "sunplus_uart", port);
        if (ret)
                return ret;

        spin_lock_irqsave(&port->lock, flags);

        isc = readl(port->membase + SUP_UART_ISC); //add this line
        isc |= SUP_UART_ISC_RXM;
        writel(isc, port->membase + SUP_UART_ISC);

        spin_unlock_irqrestore(&port->lock, flags);

        return 0;
}

static void sunplus_shutdown(struct uart_port *port)
{
        unsigned long flags;
        unsigned int isc;

        spin_lock_irqsave(&port->lock, flags);

        isc = readl(port->membase + SUP_UART_ISC); //add this line
        isc &= ~(SUP_UART_ISC_RXM | SUP_UART_ISC_TXM); //add this line
        writel(isc, port->membase + SUP_UART_ISC); //modify this line

        spin_unlock_irqrestore(&port->lock, flags);

        free_irq(port->irq, port);
}
