Commit Message

Aleksey Makarov March 1, 2017, 3:23 p.m. UTC
The original patch makes the condition always true, so it is wrong.

It masks (but not fixes) the bug described in the commit message
but introduces a regression (no console is selected by SPCR)
in regular (no 'console=ttyAMA') case.

s/||/&&/ would not fix the problem as the root cause was identified
incorrectly.

This reverts commit aea9a80ba98a0c9b4de88850260e9fbdcc98360b.

It's commit 713b93f1b849 from tty-next branch of 
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git

So it looks like it is scheduled for 4.12

Greg, this is a fix for regression.  Can it be applied to 4.11-rcX?

Thank you
Aleksey Makarov
