Yeah, it just triggers because there is now a print by default (if DMA 
is
not available) thus this RFC doesn't contain the Fixes: tag.

TBH I don't want to refactor the whole driver. All I wanted to do was to
add LS1028A support to this driver which already resulted in a 7 patches
series with various other bugfixes. Could NXP take this over? I could
certainly do rewiews/testing on my board, though.

It would be good to have N: lpuart (or fsl_lpuart?) in the
corresponding entry in MAINTAINERS, so it will automatically added.
I'll try to remember for the next patches though.
