Oh wow, I never noticed this and it was wrong ever since the kernel is
tracked in git (back in 1da177e4c3f4 the definition was in
include/asm-arm/arch-imx/imx-regs.h)---I didn't check further.

Also I checked the i.MX1, i.MX25 and i.MX6 manuals and the transmit
register was never called RTX, in all three manuals it is named UTXD.

I suggest to also drop the 0 from both URXD0 and UTXD0.

If you send a v2 I recommend adding the imx people (from MAINTAINERS) to
Cc.

Best regards
Uwe
