Subject[PATCH 06/10] tty: xuartps: Force enable the UART in xuartps_console_write
Date
From: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@metafoo.de>

It is possible that under certain circumstances xuartps_console_write is entered
while the UART disabled. When this happens the code will busy loop in
xuartps_console_putchar, since the character is never written and the TXEMPTY
flag is never set. The result is a system lockup. This patch force enables the
UART for the duration of xuartps_console_write to avoid this.

tty: xuartps: Fix bad register write in console_write

The commit:
serial: xilinx_uartps: Force enable the UART in xuartps_console_write
(sha1: d21aec67c1c782314d20b3d619e76cf8aae593dc)
caused a new bug as the write to the control register had
the offset and the value to write reversed.
