The existing implementation includes overrun errors under IGNPAR
option. This patch fixes it by including only parity and framing error
under IGNPAR option.
The convention adopted by Linux serial drivers is to ignore overrun errors if both
IGNPAR and IGNBRK are set.
I just followed the set_termios documentation, which says that IGNPAR is for parity and framing.
The current controller does not support break detection reliably.
That is probably why we don?t have IGNBRK.
My point is about how a user-space process tells the serial driver to ignore
overrun errors, as well, and not specifically about break handling.
