serial_core: Commonalize crlf when working w/ a non open console port
In (efe2f29e kgdboc,kdb: Allow kdb to work on a non open console port) support was added to directly use the "write_char" functions when doing kdb over a non-open console port. This is great, but it ends up bypassing the normal code in uart_console_write() that adds a carriage return before any newlines. There appears to have been a trend to add this support directly in some console driver's poll_put_char() functions. This had a few side effects, including: - In this case we were doing LFCR, not CRLF. This was fixed in uart_console_write() back in (d358788f [SERIAL] kernel console should send CRLF not LFCR) - Not all serial drivers had the LFCR code in their poll_put_char() functions. In my case I was running serial/samsung.c which lacked it. I've moved the handling to uart_poll_put_char() to fix the above problems. Now when I use kdb (and don't point console= to the same UART) I no longer get: [0]kdb> [0]kdb> [0]kdb> Signed-off-by: Doug Anderson <dianders@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
