[PATCH v1 RESEND 0/7] serial: imx: work-around for hardware RX flood, and then isr improvements

[Sergey Organov]

These series contain a work-around for hardware RX flood in first 2
commits, and then further cleanups and optimizations of the receive IRQ
handler.

WARNING: the flood fix is extensively tested with older version of the
kernel with DMA turned off. The DMA path is tested only a bit, as DMA has
receive problems on my kernel version.

Changes in v1:

  * Missing braces fixed.

  * Withdrawn patch optimizing imx_uart_readl() -> readl(), on request of
    Uwe Kleine-König.

Sergey Organov (7):
  serial: imx: factor-out common code to imx_uart_soft_reset()
  serial: imx: work-around for hardware RX flood
  serial: imx: do not sysrq broken chars
  serial: imx: do not break from FIFO reading loop prematurely
  serial: imx: remove redundant USR2 read from FIFO reading loop
  serial: imx: stop using USR2 in FIFO reading loop
  serial: imx: refine local variables in rxint()
