Independently from this patch, I was wondering about this code:
quoted
+	.macro	senduart, rd, rx
+#ifdef CONFIG_MSM_HAS_DEBUG_UART_HS
+	@ Write the 1 character to UARTDM_TF
+	str	\rd, [\rx, #0x70]
+#else
 	teq	\rx, #0
 	strne	\rd, [\rx, #0x0C]
+#endif
 	.endm
Why testing for zero in the #else part?  The upper level code should 
never call this macro with a null byte.
I was wondering the same thing, I don't know why that test for null is
there. I will dust off the old 7201a (literally) and see what I can find
out. It certainly looks unnecessary.
