[PATCHv4 3/3] tty/serial: at91: fix hardware handshake on SAM9x5 (without GPIOs)

From: Richard Genoud
Date: Fri Sep 30 2016 - 04:59:23 EST


Commit 1cf6e8fc8341 ("tty/serial: at91: fix RTS line management when
hardware handshake is enabled") broke the hardware handshake on SAM9x5
platforms.

On Atmel platforms, the USART can only handle the handware handshake
(ATMEL_US_USMODE_HWHS) if FIFOs or PDC are used.

Thus, ATMEL_US_USMODE_HWHS mode should only be used in this case.

For SAM9x5, there's no FIFOs nor PDC for the USART, so the mode should
be ATMEL_US_USMODE_NORMAL and the RTS pin should be controlled by the
driver.

NB: -stable is not Cced because it doesn't cleanly apply on 4.1+

Tested on SAM9G35-CM with and without DMA
