Subject: [PATCHv2] serial: 8250: change lock order in serial8250_do_startup()

We have a number of "uart.port->desc.lock vs desc.lock->uart.port"
lockdep reports coming from 8250 driver; this causes a bit of trouble
to people, so let's fix it.

The problem is reverse lock order in two different call paths:

chain #1:

serial8250_do_startup()
spin_lock_irqsave(&port->lock);
disable_irq_nosync(port->irq);
raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&desc->lock)

chain #2:

__report_bad_irq()
raw_spin_lock_irqsave(&desc->lock)
for_each_action_of_desc()
printk()
spin_lock_irqsave(&port->lock);

Fix this by changing the order of locks in serial8250_do_startup():
do disable_irq_nosync() first, which grabs desc->lock, and grab
uart->port after that, so that chain #1 and chain #2 have same lock
order.

Full lockdep splat:

Petr, as far as I can tell, Greg has applied it to gregkh/tty.git

It's fine to have it in two or more repos, during merge the first one will go,
the second and consequent will be just no-op. It works the same way as
immutable branches/tags.
