Re: [PATCH v2] tty: serial: max3100: shut down timer before freeing port

Hi Greg,

Sorry, I don't have MAX3100 hardware, so I have not tested this on
hardware.

You're right about the extra state. I'll rework the cleanup to use the
existing startup/unwind state instead of adding irq_registered, then
send v3 after rebuilding it.

Thanks,
Fan
