Subject: [PATCH 3.16 060/233] serial: efm32: Fix parity management in
 'efm32_uart_console_get_options()'

3.16.48-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@...adoo.fr>

commit be40597a1bc173bf9dadccdf5388b956f620ae8f upstream.

UARTn_FRAME_PARITY_ODD is 0x0300
UARTn_FRAME_PARITY_EVEN is 0x0200
So if the UART is configured for EVEN parity, it would be reported as ODD.
Fix it by correctly testing if the 2 bits are set.
