This patch set adds the DMA support for auart in mx28.
patch 1:
But in mx23, the DMA has a bug(see errata:2836). We can not add the
DMA support in mx23, but we can add DMA support to auart in mx28.
So in order to add the DMA support for the auart in mx28, we should add
the platform_device_id to distinguish the distinguish SOCs.
patch 2: add the DMA support for mx28
Only we meet the following conditions, we can enable the DMA support
for auart:
(1) We enable the DMA support in the dts file, such as
arch/arm/boot/dts/imx28.dtsi.
(2) We enable the hardware flow control.
(3) We use the mx28, not the mx23. Due to hardware bug(see errata: 2836),
we can not add the DMA support to mx23.
patch 3: enable the DMA support in dts for mx28
You can use the /ttyAPP0 to test this patch set.
I tested this patch in mx28-evk board.
