tty: serial: imx: console write routing is unsafe on SMP
commit
9ec1882df244c4ee1baa692676fef5e8b0f5487d upstream.
The console feature's write routing is unsafe on SMP with
the startup/shutdown call.
There could be several consumers of the console
* the kernel printk
* the init process using /dev/kmsg to call printk to show log
* shell, which open /dev/console and write with sys_write()
The shell goes into the normal uart open/write routing,
but the other two go into the console operations.
The open routing calls imx serial startup, which will write USR1/2
register without any lock and critical with imx_console_write call.
Add a spin_lock for startup/shutdown/console_write routing.
This patch is a port from Freescale's Android kernel.
