v2: cherry picked prerequisites instead of backport in a wrong way.
[Impact]
A potential deadlock might occur if too much time were spent for serial
IMX subsystem, leading to denial of service.
[Backport]
There is one conflict that needs to be solved manually when backporting
the fix commit:
1. Declaration for usr2 variable: it is introduced by 18ee37e1382a
(“serial: drop irq-flags initialisations”) and merely a change of the
order of declaration of variables, apply it manually.
Besides, read_poll_timeout_atomic macro is not in the tree yet, include
it by cherry picking the following two prerequisites:
1. 57a29df34146 (“iopoll: Introduce read_poll_timeout_atomic macro”)
2. 5f5323a14cad (“iopoll: introduce read_poll_timeout macro”)
[Test]
Compile and boot tested only due to lack of arm64 hardware.
[Where problems could occur]
Regression might occur on all IMX CPU users.
