The struct eg20t_port has a spinlock_t which is used for locking while access I/O of the device. Then there is the uart_portlock which is sometimes and nests within eg20t_port's lock. The uart_port lock is not used while using the struct in pch_uart_hal_read() which might be okay. Then both locks are used in pch_console_write() which looks odd especially the double try_lock part. All in all it looks like the uart_port's lock could replace eg20t_port's lock and simplify the code. Remove eg20t_port::lock and use uart_port's lock for the lock scope.

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 Restructured Text 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.
