Subject: [PATCH] tty: serial: msm_serial: avoid system lockup condition
Date:   Mon, 10 Jun 2019 09:37:37 +0200
Message-Id: <20190610073737.22856-1-jorge.ramirez-ortiz@linaro.org>

Precedence: bulk

The function msm_wait_for_xmitr can be taken with interrupts
disabled. In order to avoid a potential system lockup - demonstrated
under stress testing conditions on SoC QCS404/5 - make sure we wait
for a bounded amount of time.

Tested on SoC QCS404.
