    tty: serial_core: Set port active bit in uart_port_activate · 13b18d35

    A bug was introduced by commit b3b57646 ("tty: serial_core: convert
    uart_open to use tty_port_open"). It caused a constant warning printed
    into the system log regarding the tty and port counter mismatch:
    
    [   21.644197] ttyS ttySx: tty_port_close_start: tty->count = 1 port count = 2
    
    in case if session hangup was detected so the warning is printed starting
    from the second open-close iteration.
    
    Particularly the problem was discovered in situation when there is a
    serial tty device without hardware back-end being setup. It is considered
    by the tty-serial subsystems as a hardware problem with session hang up.
    In this case uart_startup() will return a positive value with TTY_IO_ERROR
    flag set in corresponding tty_struct instance. The same value will get
    passed to be returned from the activate() callback and then being returned
    from tty_port_open(). But since in this case tty_port_block_til_ready()
    isn't called the TTY_PORT_ACTIVE flag isn't set (while the method had been
    called before tty_port_open conversion was introduced and the rest of the
    subsystem code expected the bit being set in this case), which prevents the
    uart_hangup() method to perform any cleanups including the tty port
    counter setting to zero. So the next attempt to open/close the tty device
    will discover the counters mismatch.
    
    In order to fix the problem we need to manually set the TTY_PORT_ACTIVE
    flag in case if uart_startup() returned a positive value. In this case
    the hang up procedure will perform a full set of cleanup actions including
    the port ref-counter resetting.
