Subject: [PATCH] uart drivers: use xzalloc instead of xmalloc
Date: Fri, 23 Dec 2011 11:22:01 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1324635721-20195-1-git-send-email-s.hauer@pengutronix.de> (raw)

The flags in struct console_device have to be initialized
to zero. Otherwise the following can happen:

- console_register sets the initial baudrate of a new console
  before we set the global console init state to CONSOLE_INIT_FULL.
- In console_baudrate_set we test whether the current console is
  active which may be true because of unitialized flags.
- we then call getc() to wait for the user to accept the new settings
  and we are stuck because of the CONSOLE_UNINITIALIZED state
  we will never get anything from getc().

Looking back this explains some cases for me when barebox refused
to start and I really wonder why this did not become a more visible
problem before.
