Shardar Shariff Md 853a699739 serial: tegra: handle race condition on uart rx side
The tegra serial driver has two paths through which receive data is
copied up to the tty layer. These are:
1. DMA completion callback
2. UART RX interrupt

A UART RX interrupt occurs for either RX_TIMEOUT (data has been sitting
in the Rx FIFO for more than 4 character times without being read
because there is not enough data to reach the trigger level), End of
Receive Data event (receiver detects that data stops coming in for more
than 4 character times) or a receive error.

In the RX interrupt path, the following happens ...
- All RX DMA transfers are stopped
- Any data in the DMA buffer and RX FIFO are copied up to the tty layer.
- DMA is restarted/primed for the RX path

In the DMA completion callback, the DMA buffer is copied up to the tty
layer but there is no check to see if the RX interrupt could have
occurred between the DMA interrupt firing the the DMA callback running.
Hence, if a RX interrupt was to occur shortly after the DMA completion
interrupt, it is possible that the RX interrupt path has already copied
the DMA buffer before the DMA callback has been called. Therefore, when
the DMA callback is called, if the DMA is already in-progress, then this
indicates that the UART RX interrupt has already occurred and there is
nothing to do in the DMA callback. This race condition can cause
duplicated data to be received.

[jonathanh@nvidia.com: Moved async_tx_ack() call to after check to see
 if DMA has completed because if the DMA is in progress we do not need
 to ACK yet. Changed the print from dev_info to dev_debug. Updated
 changelog to add more commentary on the race condition based upon
 feedback from author.]
