Right -- I already had this lined up for v4 :)

So, instead of `bool poll_tx_started` I should just keep a copy of the
irq_mask there, and take `&port->lock` whenever I need to *both* update
the mask *and* write it out to the actual device register?

Yeah, I did notice that right after I sent out v3. I've already
rebased it on top of your patch using uart_xmit_advance.

I'll switch to s/bool poll_tx_started/u8 irq_mask/g in v4, hopefully
it should make it all look cleaner.

Is that in the released linus tree, or still only in tty-next?

Already lined up for v4.

Looks like I should switch to tty-next for this whole series, which
makes sense, since it's a tty I'm working on :)
I'll rebase on top of that before I send out v4, hopefully later this
afternoon.

Proably not, but it shouldn't matter if I switch to using `u8 irq_mask`,
instead, which should be initialized to 0 during probe().
Thanks again for the feedback!
