The uart_handle_cts_change() function in serial_core expects the caller to hold uport->lock. For example, I have seen the below kernel splat, when the Bluetooth driver is loaded on an i.MX28 board.

Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: 4d90bb147ef6 ("serial: core: Document and assert lock requirements for irq helpers") Reviewed-by: Frank Li Frank.Li@nxp.com Signed-off-by: Emil Kronborg emil.kronborg@protonmail.com --- Changes in v3:
I misunderstood how additional instructions for the stable team work; sorry about that. Therefore, the only change in this version is the removal of the "Cc" tag, which no longer includes v6.1+ as a prerequisite. Additionally, I included Frank's Reviewed-by in the patch.
Since the Fixes commit has been included since v3.18, this patch should be backported to all currently maintained stable kernels. However, for backporting to v6.6 and earlier, either b0af4bcb4946 ("serial: core: Provide port lock wrappers") needs to be included, or those helpers must be open-coded, i.e. doing spin_lock(&s->port.lock); instead of uart_port_lock(&s->port);.
