[PATCH] imx: add polled io uart methods

Sun Oct 16 23:22:01 EDT 2011


These methods are invoked if the iMX uart is used in conjuction with kgdb during
early boot.  In order to access the UART without the interrupts, the kernel uses
the basic polling methods for IO with the device.  With these methods
implemented, it is now possible to enable kgdb during early boot over serial.
