serial: apbuart: fix console prompt on qemu

When using a leon kernel with qemu there where no console prompt.
The root cause is the handling of the fifo size in the tx part of the
apbuart driver.

The qemu uart driver only have a very rudimentary status handling and do
not report the number of chars queued in the tx fifo in the status register.
So the driver ends up with a fifo size of 1.

In the tx path the fifo size is divided by 2 - resulting in a fifo
size of zero.

The original implementation would always try to send one char, but
after the introduction of uart_port_tx_limited() the fifo size is
respected even for the first char.

There seems to be no good reason to divide the fifo size with two - so
remove this. It looks like something copied from the original amba driver.

With qemu we now have a minimum fifo size of one char, so we show
the prompt.

serial: apb: Use port lock wrappers

When a serial port is used for kernel console output, then all
modifications to the UART registers which are done from other contexts,
e.g. getty, termios, are interference points for the kernel console.

So far this has been ignored and the printk output is based on the
principle of hope. The rework of the console infrastructure which aims to
support threaded and atomic consoles, requires to mark sections which
modify the UART registers as unsafe. This allows the atomic write function
to make informed decisions and eventually to restore operational state. It
also allows to prevent the regular UART code from modifying UART registers
while printk output is in progress.

All modifications of UART registers are guarded by the UART port lock,
which provides an obvious synchronization point with the console
infrastructure.

To avoid adding this functionality to all UART drivers, wrap the
spin_[un]lock*() invocations for uart_port::lock into helper functions
which just contain the spin_[un]lock*() invocations for now. In a
subsequent step these helpers will gain the console synchronization
mechanisms.

Converted with coccinelle. No functional change.

tty: Explicitly include correct DT includes

The DT of_device.h and of_platform.h date back to the separate
of_platform_bus_type before it as merged into the regular platform bus.
As part of that merge prepping Arm DT support 13 years ago, they
"temporarily" include each other. They also include platform_device.h
and of.h. As a result, there's a pretty much random mix of those include
files used throughout the tree. In order to detangle these headers and
replace the implicit includes with struct declarations, users need to
explicitly include the correct includes.

serial: drivers: switch ch and flag to u8

Now that the serial layer explicitly expects 'u8' for flags and
characters, propagate this type to drivers' (RX) routines.

Note that amba-pl011's, clps711x's and st-asc's 'ch' are left unchanged
because 'ch' contains not only a character, but whole status.

tty: serial: use uart_port_tx_limited()

uart_port_tx_limited() is a new helper to send characters to the device.
Use it in these drivers.

mux.c also needs to define tx_done(). But I'm not sure if the driver
really wants to wait for all the characters to dismiss from the HW fifo
at this code point. Hence I marked this as FIXME.

serial: make uart_console_write->putchar()'s character an unsigned char

Currently, uart_console_write->putchar's second parameter (the
character) is of type int. It makes little sense, provided uart_console_write()
accepts the input string as "const char *s" and passes its content -- the
characters -- to putchar(). So switch the character's type to unsigned
char.

We don't use char as that is signed on some platforms. That would cause
troubles for drivers which (implicitly) cast the char to u16 when
writing to the device. Sign extension would happen in that case and the
value written would be completely different to the provided char. DZ is
an example of such a driver -- on MIPS, it uses u16 for dz_out in
dz_console_putchar().

Note we do the char -> uchar conversion implicitly in
uart_console_write(). Provided we do not change size of the data type,
sign extension does not happen there, so the problem is void.

This makes the types consistent and unified with the rest of the uart
layer, which uses unsigned char in most places already. One exception is
xmit_buf, but that is going to be converted later.

serial: apbuart: drop low-latency workaround

Commit 78d34d75c84d ("tty: serial: apbuart: drop uart_port->lock before
calling tty_flip_buffer_push()") claimed to address a locking
issue but only provided a dubious lockdep splat from an unrelated
driver, which in the end turned out to be due a broken local change
carried by the author.

Unfortunately these patches were merged before the issue had been
analysed properly so the commit messages makes no sense whatsoever.

The real issue was first seen on RT which at the time effectively always
set the low_latency flag for all serial drivers by patching
tty_flip_buffer_push(). This in turn revealed that many drivers did not
handle the infamous low_latency behaviour which meant that data was
pushed immediately to the line discipline instead of being deferred to a
work queue.

Since commit a9c3f68f3cd8 ("tty: Fix low_latency BUG"),
tty_flip_buffer_push() always schedules a work item to push data to the
line discipline and there's no need to keep any low_latency hacks
around.

The SUPPORT_SYSRQ ifdeffery is not nice as:
- May create misunderstanding about sizeof(struct uart_port) between

- Prevents moving functions from serial_core.h
- Reduces readability (well, it's ifdeffery - it's hard to follow)

In order to remove SUPPORT_SYSRQ, has_sysrq variable has been added.
Initialise it in driver's probe and remove ifdeffery.

tty: add SPDX identifiers to all remaining files in drivers/tty/

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.

Update the drivers/tty files files with the correct SPDX license
identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX
identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of
the full boiler plate text.

This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

Release the port lock before calling tty_flip_buffer_push() and reacquire it
after the call.

Similar stuff was already done for few other drivers in the past, like:

TTY: switch tty_flip_buffer_push

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use
tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many
call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more
tty_port_tty_get in those paths.

Now, the one where most of tty_port_tty_get gets removed:
tty_flip_buffer_push.

IOW we also closed all the races in drivers not using tty_port_tty_get
at all yet.

Also we move tty_flip_buffer_push declaration from include/linux/tty.h
to include/linux/tty_flip.h to all others while we are changing it
anyway.

apbuart: fix section mismatch warning

Fix following warnings:

WARNING: drivers/tty/serial/built-in.o(.text+0x7370): Section mismatch in reference from the function grlib_apbuart_configure() to the variable .init.data:apbuart_match
The function grlib_apbuart_configure() references
the variable __initdata apbuart_match.
This is often because grlib_apbuart_configure lacks a __initdata
annotation or the annotation of apbuart_match is wrong.

+ 3 more warnings like this.

There is no guarantee that grlib_apbuart_of_driver.of_match_table
is only used at __init time - so drop the __initdata annotation.

grlib_apbuart_configure() is only used during __init so add __init
to this method too.

TTY: serial, fix includes in some drivers

linux/tty_flip.h is included in linux/serial_core.h. But this may (and
will) change in the future. Then we would get build errors such as:
.../tty/serial/max3107.c: In function ‘put_data_to_circ_buf’:
.../tty/serial/max3107.c:149:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘tty_insert_flip_string’

So fix all the drviers which call tty flip buffer helpers to really
include linux/tty_flip.h. And also make sure that those include
linux/tty.h when operating with struct tty_struct.

sparc32,leon: Fixed APBUART frequency detection

The UARTs may be located on different APB buses, thus have

different UART clock frequency. The system frequency is not
the same (but often) as the UART frequency, rather the APB bus
frequency that the APBUART is located at has the same
frequency, so this looks at the "freq" property instead.

tty: move drivers/serial/ to drivers/tty/serial/

The serial drivers are really just tty drivers, so move them to
drivers/tty/ to make things a bit neater overall.

This is part of the tty/serial driver movement proceedure as proposed by
Arnd Bergmann and approved by everyone involved a number of months ago.
