For RS485 mode, if SER_RS485_RX_DURING_TX is not available, the console ->write() callback needs to enable/disable Tx. It does this by calling the ->rs485_start_tx() and ->rs485_stop_tx() callbacks. However, some of these callbacks also disable/enable interrupts and makes power management calls. This causes 2 problems for console writing: 1. A console write can occur in contexts that are illegal for pm_runtime_*(). It is not even necessary for console writing to use pm_runtime_*() because a console already does this in serial8250_console_setup() and serial8250_console_exit(). 2. The console ->write() callback already handles disabling/enabling the interrupts by properly restoring the previous IER value. Add an argument @toggle_ier to the ->rs485_start_tx() and ->rs485_stop_tx() callbacks to specify if they may disable/enable receive interrupts while using pm_runtime_*(). Console writing will not allow the toggling. For all call sites other than console writing there is no functional change.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
