Yes, we could have different function names above and use a struct.

I implemented what Sascha asked for in

http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg144960.html

though:

I'm thinking about:

imx_console_mode(struct uart_port *port, u32 *ucr1, u32 *ucr2, u32 *ucr2);
imx_console_restore(struct uart_port *port, u32 ucr1, u32 ucr2, u32 ucr3);
-- Sascha end --

It seems Shawn proposes

imx_port_ucrs_save(struct uart_port *port, struct *imx_port_ucrs);
imx_port_ucrs_restore(struct uart_port *port, struct *imx_port_ucrs);

(?)

Sascha, Shawn: Could you agree on what we should use?

Once you agreed, I will send an update of both two patches.

Many thanks and best regards
