Subject: [PATCH v4 3/4] serial: fix TIOCMIWAIT race
Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 15:08:15 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260910130816.642699-4-johan@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260910130816.642699-1-johan@kernel.org>

The task state must be updated before checking the wakeup condition to
avoid missing a racing modem status update.

Reported-by: sashiko-bot@kernel.org
