For the atmel driver I would expect that it doesn't hurt to set
ATMEL_US_CTSIC if CTS is realized using a gpio. But maybe I'm too
optimistic here. So atmel_enable_ms could look as follows:

	struct atmel_uart_port *atmel_port = to_atmel_uart_port(port);

	/*
	 * Interrupt should not be enabled twice
	 * ukl: is this check really needed?
	 */
	if (atmel_port->ms_irq_enabled)
		return;

	atmel_port->ms_irq_enabled = true;

	mctrl_gpio_enable_ms(...);
	UART_PUT_IER(port, ATMEL_US_CTSIC | ATMEL_US_DSRIC | ATMEL_US_RIIC | ATMEL_US_DCDIC);

Best regards
Uwe
