[PATCH RESEND 0/5] tty/serial: Add helpers to use GPIOs to control modem lines and implement atmel_serial.c

[Richard Genoud]

This patch series is a leftover of http://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg314242.html
that missed 3.15 because it caused merge conflicts.

The USART controllers on sam9x5 chips (and also all AT91/SAMA5 chips
but at91rm9200) are not capable of handling DTR/DSR/DCD/RI signal.
Moreover, even if the controller can handle CTS/RTS, the dedicated
CTS/RTS pins may be already muxed for other peripherals (LCDC/EMAC/MMC).

So this patchset adds the possibility to control those lines via GPIO,
as it is done for RTS in the patch "switch atmel serial to use gpiolib"

NB: The 1st patch should make it for 3.15-final since it corrects a
device tree binding documentation example that has been introduced in 3.15-rc1.

Patch 1: For 3.15-final: fix GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW usage in device-tree documentation.
Patch 2: For 3.16: implements at91_gpiolib_get_direction used in patch 4
Patch 3: For 3.16: implements the generic helpers to control modem lines via GPIO.
Patch 4: For 3.16: implements modem control lines in atmel_serial atmel_serial.
Patch 5: For 3.16: implements the interrupts of CTS/DSR/DCD/RI.

This is based on v3.15-rc5.

Tested on at91sam9g35, with a null modem cable between 2 serial ports,
one with CTS/RTS controlled by the USART controller, the other via GPIO,
full duplex transfers.
Did some tests also with null modem cables on a PC, and with real modems.

Richard Genoud (5):
  tty/serial: atmel_serial: Fix device tree documentation
  ARM: at91: gpio: implement get_direction
  tty/serial: Add GPIOLIB helpers for controlling modem lines
  tty/serial: at91: use mctrl_gpio helpers
  tty/serial: at91: add interrupts for modem control lines
