Anyway, the problematics setups are all the setups with USMODE_HWHS enabled on platform without Fifos or PDC, i.e. all platforms but sama5d2 (Cyrille, correct me if I'm wrong).This is a wrong assumption, at91rm9200 to at91sam9g45 all have a pdc. Please, don't break those platforms. The only affected platforms are sam9x5, sama5d3 and sama5d4.Have you tested them ? And why are you saying that rm9200 and g45 will be broken with this patch ? If they have a pdc, they will fall in the case: (atmel_use_pdc_rx(port) || atmel_use_fifo(port)) and thus use: mode |= ATMEL_US_USMODE_HWHS; won't they ?Well, this patch wouldn't have my ack if it was breaking them.
It's not. Read the code.
However, I'm still not sure about 3/3.
As I said 2 weeks from now ( https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/9/14/263 ) the only case where we would want to drop the CRTSCTS flag is when there's no pin muxed for CTS/RTS nor GPIOs. Fell free to give a patch for that. To be clear : this patch (2/3) unbreaks ALL platforms with GPIOs as CTS/RTS and 3/3 unbreaks sam9x5 / sama5d3 / sama5d4 platform with CTS/RTS as !GPIOs.
