Subject: [PATCH] tty: Simplify tty_set_ldisc() exit handling
Date: Sun, 8 Nov 2015 09:29:38 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1446992978-22537-1-git-send-email-peter@hurleysoftware.com> (raw)
Perform common exit for both successful and error exit handling
in tty_set_ldisc(). Fixes unlikely possibility of failing to restart
input kworker when switching to the same line discipline (noop case).
