From 02ab851324dc7e2fc75787f7fae71187092be7ed Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt Date: Sun, 10 Jan 2010 17:51:42 +0000 Subject: serial/pmac_zilog: Workaround problem due to interrupt on closed port It seems that in qemu, we can see an interrupt in R3 despite the fact that it's masked in W1. The chip doesn't actually issue an interrupt, but we can "see" it when taking an interrupt for the other channel. This may be a qemu bug ... or not, so let's be safe and avoid calling into the UART layer when that happens which woulc cause a crash.
