TTY: serial_core, add ->install
We need to compute the uart state only on the first open. This is usually what is done in the ->install hook. serial_core used to do this in ->open on every open. So move it to ->install. As a side effect, it ensures the state is set properly in the window after tty_init_dev is called, but before uart_open. This fixes a bunch of races between tty_open and flush_to_ldisc we were dealing with recently. One of such bugs was attempted to fix in commit fedb5760 (serial: fix race between flush_to_ldisc and tty_open), but it only took care of a couple of functions (uart_start and uart_unthrottle). I was able to reproduce the crash on a SLE system, but in uart_write_room which is also called from flush_to_ldisc via process_echoes. I was *unable* to reproduce the bug locally. It is due to having this patch in my queue since 2012! general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN PTI CPU: 1 PID: 5 Comm: kworker/u4:0 Tainted: G L 4.12.14-396-default #1 SLE15-SP1 (unreleased) Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.12.0-0-ga698c89-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 Workqueue: events_unbound flush_to_ldisc task: ffff8800427d8040 task.stack: ffff8800427f0000 RIP: 0010:uart_write_room+0xc4/0x590 RSP: 0018:ffff8800427f7088 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: dffffc0000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 000000000000002f RSI: 00000000000000ee RDI: ffff88003888bd90 RBP: ffffffffb9545850 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: 0000000000000400 R10: ffff8800427d825c R11: 000000000000006e R12: 1ffff100084fee12 R13: ffffc900004c5000 R14: ffff88003888bb28 R15: 0000000000000178 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff880043300000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000561da0794148 CR3: 000000000ebf4000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 Call Trace: tty_write_room+0x6d/0xc0 __process_echoes+0x55/0x870 n_tty_receive_buf_common+0x105e/0x26d0 tty_ldisc_receive_buf+0xb7/0x1c0 tty_port_default_receive_buf+0x107/0x180 flush_to_ldisc+0x35d/0x5c0 ... 0 in rbx means tty->driver_data is NULL in uart_write_room. 0x178 is tried to be dereferenced (0x178 >> 3 is 0x2f in rdx) at uart_write_room+0xc4. 0x178 is exactly (struct uart_state *)NULL->refcount used in uart_port_lock from uart_write_room. So revert the upstream commit here as my local patch should fix the whole family.
