    serial: 8250_dw: Fix breakage when HAVE_CLK=n · b15bfbe6
    James Hogan authored
    Commit 6a171b29 ("serial: 8250_dw: Allow hardware flow control to be
    used") recently broke the 8250_dw driver on platforms which don't select
    HAVE_CLK, as dw8250_set_termios() gets confused by the behaviour of the
    fallback HAVE_CLK=n clock API in linux/clk.h which pretends everything
    is fine but returns (valid) NULL clocks and 0 HZ clock rates.
    
    That 0 rate is written into the uartclk resulting in a crash at boot,
    e.g. on Cavium Octeon III based UTM-8 we get something like this:
    
    1180000000800.serial: ttyS0 at MMIO 0x1180000000800 (irq = 41, base_baud = 25000000) is a OCTEON
    ------------[ cut here ]------------
    WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1 at drivers/tty/serial/serial_core.c:441 uart_get_baud_rate+0xfc/0x1f0

    The clock API is defined such that NULL is a valid clock handle so it
    wouldn't be right to check explicitly for NULL. Instead treat a
    clk_round_rate() return value of 0 as an error which prevents uartclk
    being overwritten.
