> The Qualcomm QCA7000 HomePlug GreenPHY supports two interfaces:
> UART and SPI. This patch series adds the missing support for UART.
> 
> This driver based on the Qualcomm code [1], but contains some changes:
> * use random MAC address per default
> * use net_device_stats from device
> * share frame decoding between SPI and UART driver
> * improve error handling
> * reimplement tty_wakeup with work queue (based on slcan)
> * use new serial device bus instead of ldisc
> 
> The patches 1 - 3 are just for clean up and are not related to
> the UART support. Patch 4 adds SET_NETDEV_DEV() to qca_spi.
> Patches 5 - 16 prepare the existing QCA7000 code for UART support.
> The last patch contains the new driver.
> 
> The code itself has been tested on a Freescale i.MX28 board and
> a Raspberry Pi Zero.

Series applied, thank you.
