[PATCH v3 0/2] serial: 8250: Mitigate Tx stall risk for Aspeed VUARTs

[Andrew Jeffery]

Hello,

Briefly, the series works around a hardware race condition in the Tx path for
Aspeed virtual UARTs. A write burst to THR on the APB interface may provoke a
transfer stall where LSR[DR] on the LPC interface remains clear despite the
presence of data in the Rx FIFO.

v3 addresses comments from Jiri on v2. v2 can be found here:

The documentation patch that fell out of the discussion of patch 2 of v2 can be
found here:

Please review!

Andrew
