    [ARM] 5449/1: S3C: Use disable_irq_nosync() to fix boot lockups · 41609ff4
    Mark Brown authored
    With 2.6.30-rc1 on SMDK6410 I experience a soft lockup on bootup when
    the Samsung serial driver attempts to disable the transmit interrupt
    from within the transmit interrupt handler: it calls disable_irq()
    which locks up due to attempting to synchronise with the running handler.
    Fix this by using disable_irq_nosync().
    
    Also make the same change in the recieve path.
