DMA engines usually expect the fifo trigger level to be

When a serial port is configured for RTS/CTS flow control, serial core
will disable the transmitter if it observes CTS is de-asserted. This is
perfectly reasonable and appropriate when the UART lacks the ability to
automatically perform CTS flow control.
However, if the UART hardware can manage flow control automatically, it
is important that software not get involved. When the DesignWare UART
enables 16C750 style auto-RTS/CTS it stops generating interrupts for
changes in CTS state so software mostly stays out of the way. However,
it does report the true state of CTS in the MSR so software may notice
it is de-asserted and respond by improperly disabling the transmitter.
Once this happens the transmitter will be blocked forever.
To avoid this situation, we simply lie to the 8250 and serial core by
reporting that CTS is asserted whenever auto-RTS/CTS mode is enabled.

We can't use dev->mod_index for selecting the interrupt routing entry,
because it's not an index into interrupt routing table. It will be even
wrong on a machine with 2 CPUs (4 cores). But all needed information is
contained in the PAT entries for the serial ports. mod[0] contains the
iosapic address and mod_info has some indications for the interrupt
input (at least it looks like it). This patch implements the searching
for the right iosapic and uses this interrupt input information.

A few differences needed by OCTEON:
o These are DWC UARTS, but have USR at a different offset.
o Internal SoC buses require reading back from registers to maintain
write ordering.
o 8250 on OCTEON appears with 64-bit wide registers, so when using
readb/writeb in big endian mode we have to adjust the membase to hit
the proper part of the register.
o No UCV register, so we hard code some properties.
Because OCTEON doesn't have a UCV register, I change where
dw8250_setup_port(), which reads the UCV, is called by pushing it in
to the OF and ACPI probe functions, and move unchanged
dw8250_setup_port() earlier in the file.

Commit ffc3ae6dd "serial: 8250_dw: Enable runtime PM" introduced runtime
PM management, which enables/disables the clk without checking if the clk
is valid. However, this driver allows to be probed without a defined clk,
using clock-frequency, as a fallback.
Therefore, on platforms that are device tree probed using clock-frequency
instead of clk, we get an ugly NULL pointer dereference.
This patch fixes it by simply adding a check before accessing the clk api.

Consider a situation where I have an ARM based system
and therefore no legacy ports. Say, I have two
memory-mapped ports. I use device tree to describe the
ports. What would be the config options I set so that
I get only the two ports in my system? I do not want
legacy ports being created automatically and I want
it to be flexible enough that it creates the devices
based only on the device tree. I expected setting
SERIAL_8250_RUNTIME_UARTS = 0 to work because the
description said, "Set this to the maximum number of
serial ports you want the kernel to register at boot
time." Unfortunately, even though SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS
was set to the default value of 4, I did not get any device
nodes (because SERIAL_8250_RUNTIME_UARTS was 0). This
is what this change is addressing.
SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS controls the maximum number of ports
you can support. SERIAL_8250_RUNTIME_UARTS specifies the
number of ports you want to create automatically for legacy
ports at boot time. All other ports will be created
when serial8250_register_port is called (and if does not exceed
the total number of supported ports as specified by
SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS).

In 3.7 the 8250 module name was changed unintentionally from 8250 to
8250_core by commit 835d844d1a
(8250_pnp: do pnp probe before legacy probe). We then had to
re-introduce the old module options to ensure the old good

hack and we did it in f2b8dfd9e4
(serial: 8250: Keep 8250.<xxxx> module options functional after driver
rename).
That is so damn ugly so that I decided to revert to the old module
name and deprecate the new 8250_core options present in 3.7 and 3.8
only. The deprecation will happen in the following patch.

The code in 8250.c for detecting ARM/XScale UARTs says:
* Try writing and reading the UART_IER_UUE bit (b6).
* If it works, this is probably one of the Xscale platform's
* internal UARTs.
If the above passes, it then goes on to:
* It's an Xscale.
* We'll leave the UART_IER_UUE bit set to 1 (enabled).
However, the CH352 uses the UART_IER_UUE as the LOWPOWER function,
so it is readable and writable. According to the datasheet:
"LOWPOWER:When the bit is 1, close the internal benchmark
clock of serial port to set into low-power status.
So it essentially gets mis-detected as Xscale, and gets
powered down in the process. The device in question where
this was seen is listed by lspci as:
Serial controller: Device 4348:3253 (rev 10) (prog-if 02 [16550])
Re-using the 353 quirk which just sets flags to fixed and type
to 16550 is suitable for fixing the 352 as well.

With commit 835d844d1 (8250_pnp: do pnp probe before legacy probe), the
8250 driver was renamed to 8250_core. This means any existing usage of
the 8259.<xxxx> module parameters or as a kernel command line switch is
now broken, as the 8250_core driver doesn't parse options belonging to
something called "8250".
To solve this, we redefine the module options in a dummy function using
a redefined MODULE_PARAM_PREFX when built into the kernel. In the case
where we're building as a module, we provide an alias to the old 8250
name. The dummy function prevents compiler errors due to global variable
redefinitions that happen as part of the module_param_ macro expansions.

its pnp resouces for its serial ports:
$ cat /sys/bus/pnp/devices/00:0b/resources
state = active
io disabled
irq disabled
We do not check if the resources are disabled, and create a bogus
ttyS* device. Since commit 835d844d1a (8250_pnp: do pnp probe
before legacy probe) we get a bogus ttyS0, which prevents the legacy
probe from detecting it.
Note, the BIOS can also be upgraded, fixing this problem, but for people
