Work for __counted_by on generic pointers in structures (not just
flexible array members) has started landing in Clang 19 (current tip of
tree). During the development of this feature, a restriction was added
to __counted_by to prevent the flexible array member's element type from
including a flexible array member itself such as:
struct foo {
int count;
char buf[];
};
struct bar {
int count;
struct foo data[] __counted_by(count);
};
because the size of data cannot be calculated with the standard array
size formula:
sizeof(struct foo) * count
This restriction was downgraded to a warning but due to CONFIG_WERROR,
it can still break the build. The application of __counted_by on the
ports member of 'struct mxser_board' triggers this restriction,
resulting in:
drivers/tty/mxser.c:291:2: error: 'counted_by' should not be applied to an array with element of unknown size because 'struct mxser_port' is a struct type with a flexible array member. This will be an error in a future compiler version [-Werror,-Wbounds-safety-counted-by-elt-type-unknown-size]
291 | struct mxser_port ports[] __counted_by(nports);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
Remove this use of __counted_by to fix the warning/error. However,
rather than remove it altogether, leave it commented, as it may be
possible to support this in future compiler releases.

Use kfifo for xmit buffer handling. The change is mostly
straightforward. It saves complexity both on the stuffing side
(mxser_write() and mxser_put_char()) and pulling side
(mxser_transmit_chars()). In fact, the loop in mxser_write() can be
completely deleted as the wrap of the buffer is taken care of in the
kfifo code now.

For the mxser driver to use kfifo, use tty_port_alloc_xmit_buf() and
tty_port_free_xmit_buf() helpers in activate/shutdown, respectively.
As these calls have to be done in a non-atomic context, we have to move
them outside spinlock and make sure irq is really stopped after we write
to the ISR register.

When LSR is 0xff in ->activate() (rather unlike), we return an error.
Provided ->shutdown() is not called when ->activate() fails, nothing
actually frees the buffer in this case.
Fix this by properly freeing the buffer in a designated label. We jump
there also from the "!info->type" if now too.

First, checking tty->receive_room to signalize whether there is enough space
in the tty buffers does not make much sense. Provided the tty buffers
are in tty_port and those are not checked at all.
Second, if the rx path is throttled, with CRTSCTS, RTS is deasserted,
but is never asserted again. This leads to port "lockup", not accepting
any more input.
So:
1) stty -F /dev/ttyMI0 crtscts # the mxser port
2) stty -F /dev/ttyS6 crtscts # the connected port
3) cat /dev/ttyMI0
4) "write in a loop" to /dev/ttyS6
5) cat from 3) produces the bytes from 4)
6) killall -STOP cat (the 3)'s one)
7) wait for RTS to drop on /dev/ttyMI0
8) killall -CONT cat (again the 3)'s one)
cat erroneously produces no more output now (i.e. no data sent from
ttyS6 to ttyMI can be seen).
Note that the step 7) is performed twice: once from n_tty by
tty_throttle_safe(), once by mxser_stoprx() from the receive path. Then
after step 7), n_tty correctly unthrottles the input, but mxser calls
mxser_stoprx() again as there is still only a little space in n_tty
buffers (tty->receive_room mentioned at the beginning), but the device's
FIFO is/can be already filled.
After this patch, the output is correctly resumed, i.e. n_tty both
throttles and unthrottles without interfering with mxser's attempts.
This allows us to get rid of the non-standard ldisc_stop_rx flag from
struct mxser_port.

I fail to see the point of calling mxser_flush_buffer() from
mxser_close():
1) The SW xmit buffer is freed in mxser_shutdown_port() right after the
call to mxser_flush_buffer(). And all 'cnt', 'head', and 'tail' are
properly initialized to 0 in mxser_activate().
2) The HW buffer is flushed in mxser_shutdown_port() via
mxser_disable_and_clear_FIFO() too.
So the effect of doing it by mxser_flush_buffer() in mxser_close() is
none. Hence remove it, so that when we use tty_port_close() later, the
code is 1:1 identical.

mxser_stop_rx() should be called from mxser_shutdown_port() for several
reasons:
1) info->slock is held while manipulating IER (as on other places),
2) hangup now stops rx too,
3) mxser_close() will use tty_port_close() and there is no place except
tty_port_operations::shutdown() where this can be done,
4) this is the same sequence as serial_core does. So we can map this
code 1:1 when switching the driver to it.

The port->icount.tx is handled in a too complicated manner. Instead of
remembering the original count and subtracting the new one from it,
simply increase tx for each character in the loop. No need for cnt
variable then.
Change also the "X = X & Y" assignment to simpler "X &= Y".

The others are superfluous with tty refcounting in place now. And they
are racy in fact:
* tty_port_initialized() reports false for a small moment after
interrupts are enabled.
* closing is 1 while the port is still alive.
The queues are flushed later during close anyway. So there is no need
for this special handling. Actually, the ISR should not flush the
queues. It should behave as every other driver, just queue the chars
into tty buffer and go on. But this will be changed later. There is
still a lot code depending on having tty in ISR (and not only tty_port).

mxser_close() behaves like this:
-> tty_port_close_start()
-> tty_wait_until_sent()
-> mxser_wait_until_sent()
-> mxser_close_port
-> wait for TEMT
So it is already waited for TEMT through mxser_wait_until_sent() and
there is another round of waiting in mxser_close_port(). The latter one
is superfluous as nothing could be filled into the output FIFO. Remove
the call.
This helps unification among drivers (so that all behave the same) and
future use of tty_port_close().

We force the FCR contents on many places in the code instead of writing
what was actually set in mxser_change_speed() (by ->activate() or
->set_serial_info()).
So introduce mxser_port::FCR to hold the proper contents and bitwise-OR
the value to what needs to be set on all those locations. That is,
clearing RX and/or TX FIFOs. Those flags are self-clearing, so no need
to set them to mxser_port::FCR.

The UART_FCR register is write-only. When reading it, one gets contents
of (read-only) UART_IIR instead as they are shared. This mistake was
performed in mxser_flush_buffer() to clear FIFOs.
Actually FCR handling throughout the driver is completely broken. On
many places, it respects neither mu860 settings, nor FIFO (16450 vs
16550) setting. This patch doesn't help to fix this, it actually does
the same. We will introduce a mxser_port::FCR in the next patch to fix
this issue.

Provided FIFO is always enabled for MUST chips, move its FCR setting out
of PORT_8250/PORT_16450 special case in mxser_change_speed(). Now, we
can pre-set fcr to zero and invert the condition of the 'if'.
This makes the code more readable (no functional change intended).

mxser_receive_chars_old() is used whenever MOXA_MUST_LSR_RERR is set in
status no matter the HW ID (the last 'if'). So there is no need for
another check of MOXA_MUST_LSR_RERR _with_ hwid == MOXA_MUST_MU860_HWID
(the third 'if'). Hence remove this subcase. That allows us to check
status on a single line with both UART_LSR_BRK_ERROR_BITS (from the
second 'if') and MOXA_MUST_LSR_RERR (the last 'if').

If a user tries to set a too high rate, it fails due to check in
mxser_set_baud(). But the high rate remains set in termios, so the user
might think everything went smooth. Restore the baud rate from the
old_termios if this happens, so that user knows nothing was changed in
fact.
It used to behave the correct way many years ago, but somehow the
restoration vanished with commit 1c45607ad3 (Char: mxser, remove it)
-- the commit removed mxser's older clone.
