What happens when you have a mixed setup i.e. CTS controlled by UART
but other status pins controlled by GPIO? In this case CTS status
won't be returned. Do I see it right?

Yes, your analysis does seem to be correct. Please note that I did
not intentionally did change it this way. I was not thinking about
such a "mixed design".
What about something like this:

unsigned int serial8250_do_get_mctrl(struct uart_port *port)
{
struct uart_8250_port *up = up_to_u8250p(port);
unsigned int status;
unsigned int val;

serial8250_rpm_get(up);
status = serial8250_modem_status(up);
serial8250_rpm_put(up);

val = serial8250_MSR_to_TIOCM(status);
if (up->gpios)
mctrl_gpio_get(up->gpios, &val);

return val;
}

Looks good to me, thanks. Do you have such a setup with some modem
control signal handled via GPIO and some via the UART? Could you
test such a change?

Thanks,
Stefan
