[PATCH 4/4] msm_serial: Send more than 1 character at a time on UARTDM

Wed Jul 24 14:37:31 EDT 2013


UARTDM cores have a TX fifo that can accept more than one
character per register write, but the msm_serial driver currently
only supports 1 character mode. Add support for this mode of operation
to speed up the transmit path on DM devices.
