serial: 8250_port: Remove dangerous pr_debug()
[ Upstream commit 699a11ba7ec869b006623182881f2f1f5b4aea53 ]
With CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG if dyndbg enables debug output in
8250_port.c deadlock happens inevitably on UART IRQ handling.
That's the problematic execution path:
---------------------------->8------------------------
UART IRQ:
serial8250_interrupt() ->
serial8250_handle_irq(): lock "port->lock" ->
pr_debug() ->
serial8250_console_write(): bump in locked "port->lock".
OR (if above pr_debug() gets removed):
serial8250_tx_chars() ->
pr_debug() ->
serial8250_console_write(): bump in locked "port->lock".
---------------------------->8------------------------
So let's get rid of those not that much useful debug entries.
Discussed problem could be easily reproduced with QEMU for x86_64.
As well as this fix could be mimicked with muting of dynamic debug for
the problematic lines as simple as:
---------------------------->8------------------------
dyndbg="+p; file 8250_port.c line 1756 -p; file 8250_port.c line 1822 -p"
---------------------------->8------------------------
