Changed.

That's what both the downstream driver and several in-tree drivers are
doing. See `git grep '_ports\[' -- drivers/tty/serial/`.

If you feel this is wrong, --verbose explanation please.

The only flag I have found in the CTL register is AFE for automatic
RTS/CTS flow-control - RTS and CTS can only be read in STAT, not set.

And yes, if I drop this empty callback function, I get no serial output.

crisv10 and meson_uart have it this way, modulo normalized whitespace.
No serial driver uses % for it.

Fixed.

Fixed, with matching _irqrestore().

Can you explain what this flag is used for and why some other drivers
implement it? That word alone is not helping.

Not a single serial driver does it that way.
I guess it prepares for handling other flags.

Adopted.

No, currently not. Memory resources are allocated on request_port, IRQ
is requested on startup.

Changed.

Fixed. Since this is a new driver, I'd rather not fall back to
clock-frequency property here. The binding has clocks property as required.

Done.

Okay. 36 works, too.

Please point to a good example of a serial driver that is not
"redundant" in your view. That will help also with other pending serial
drivers of mine. Thanks.
