Hi Greg,

After merging the tty.current tree, today's linux-next build (arm
multi_v7_defconfig) failed like this:

In file included from drivers/tty/serial/imx.c:42:0:
drivers/tty/serial/imx.c: In function 'imx_start_tx':
drivers/tty/serial/imx.c:570:27: error: request for member 'state' in something not a structure or union
  if (uart_circ_empty(&port.state->xmit))
                           ^
include/linux/serial_core.h:336:34: note: in definition of macro 'uart_circ_empty'
 #define uart_circ_empty(circ)  ((circ)->head == (circ)->tail)
                                  ^
drivers/tty/serial/imx.c:570:27: error: request for member 'state' in something not a structure or union
  if (uart_circ_empty(&port.state->xmit))
                           ^

                                                  ^

Caused by commit c557d392fbf5 ("serial: Test for no tx data on tx
restart").  That can't have been build tested :-(

I have used the tty.current tree from next-20140710 for today.
