Hello, This patch set fixes bug causing serial hang in DMA mode for FIFO sizes smaller than cache alignment. The first patch fixes DMA mode entering condition to avoid starting with buffer smaller than cache line size. Second patch fixes the serial hang bug, which was caused by unproper buffer aligning algorithm which assumed that there is always enough free space in FIFO for excessive bytes of buffer that is being alligned.

Or at least fixes tag indicating a bug? I could not figure this out from description of first patch. For second patch it seems it applies.
These patches are two steps of fixing the bug, so they both apply for stable backporting.
Anyway I would appreciate a reported-by credits.
Sure ;) Thanks, Robert
