tty:serial:msm:Do not restore Rx interrupts in DMA
Avoid data corruption issues that result in CRC errors during file transfers over serial ports at higher baud rates. The current msm_serial driver masks the FIFO Rx interrupts in msm_start_rx_dma() since Rx FIFO interrupts are not required in DMA mode. However, msm_complete_rx_dma() re-enables the Rx FIFO interrupts which could cause RXSTALE event to be processed when a TXLEV interrupt occurs. The following is the sequence of events that could occur resulting in data corruption. msm_start_rx_dma -> msm_complete_rx_dma --> spin_unlock_irqrestore(&port->lock) --> msm_uart_irq()(For TXLEV interrupt) --> msm_handle_rx_dm() (Read from FIFO resulting in data corruption) The patch fixes the issue by not restoring the RXLEV and RXSTALE interrupts in msm_complete_rx_dma(). These interrupts are required only in FIFO mode.
