Perhaps, but !CREAD is definitely broken without this patch.  So if the 
driver really is clearing CREAD somewhere else, then that's where the 
real bug is.

CREAD is disabled by default when opening the console.  You need to 
explicitly set it in the termios structure.  I can easily believe that 
Huang's rootfs is just forgetting to set that bit because for the last 
five years, it didn't matter.

Huang,

In the beginning of pl011_set_termios() and sbsa_uart_set_termios(), 
please add this code:

	BUG_ON(!(termios->c_cflag & CREAD));
