+Subject: serial: uartps: Move the spinlock after the read of the tx empty
+
+From: Shubhrajyoti Datta <shubhrajyoti.datta@xilinx.com>
+
+commit 107475685abfdee504bb0ef4824f15797f6d2d4d upstream.
+
+Currently we are doing a read of the status register.
+Move the spinlock after that as the reads need not be spinlock
+protected. This patch prevents relaxing the cpu with spinlock held.
