From c5f4644e6c8ba21666128603e4e92544d3cd740d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Russell King Date: Wed, 29 Jun 2005 09:42:38 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Serial: Adjust serial locking This patch changes the way serial ports are locked when getting modem status. This change is necessary because we will need to atomically read the modem status and take action depending on the CTS status.
