[PATCH v4 2/5] serial: 8250: share the RX trigger conversion helper
From: James Hilliard
Date: Tue Oct 27 2026 - 19:06:06 EST
Extract the receive-trigger threshold search into serial8250_bytes_to_fcr()
so drivers with per-port threshold tables can use the same conversion as
the generic 8250 implementation.
Include the unsupported-table check in the helper and preserve the existing
nearest-lower selection and highest-encoding fallback.
