[PATCH v3 17/21] misc: support for serial slots in LP-8x4x

Tue Dec 17 14:37:47 EST 2013


Serial modules (I-870xxW series) implement DCON protocol which
allows one-master-many-slaves configuration over RS-485. When
these modules are installed into the device, they could be
accessed using the 2nd PXA built-in UART port (/dev/ttyS1).
However, it seems that addresses are not processed by the modules.
So the parallel bus needs to select which slot is connected.

   v2..v3
   * no changes (except number 12/16 -> 17/21)

   v0..v2
   * use device tree
   * use devm helpers where possible
