If the chosen baud rate is large enough (e.g. 3.5 megabaud), the
calculated n values in serial_omap_is_baud_mode16() may become 0. This
causes a division by zero when calculating the difference between
calculated and desired baud rates. To prevent this, cap the n13 and n16
values on 1.

Division by zero in kernel.

Should this go to the stable kernel trees as well?

It's been there for a while. Introduced in 5fe2123647c1508 "OMAP/serial:
Support 1Mbaud and similar baudrates that require Mode16 instead of
Mode13" (v3.9). It's probably a good idea to do so. stable@... needs a
cc?
