Subject: [PATCH] serial driver PMC MSP71xx, kernel linux-mips.git master

CCing linux-kernel as per AC's suggestion...

Here is a serial driver patch for the PMC-Sierra MSP71xx device.

There are three different fixes:
1. Fix for THRE errata
2. Fix for Busy Detect on LCR write
3. Workaround for interrupt/data concurrency issue

The first fix is handled cleanly using a UART_BUG_* flag.

The second and third fixes use platform tests. I couldn't think of a
good way to implement them without using tests and not increase code
and structure sizes for platforms not requiring them.

Does anyone have any suggestions on implementing these without the
platform flag?

Thanks,
Marc
