[PATCH 0/5] Make atmel serial driver aware of GCLK

[Sergiu Moga]

This series of patches introduces the GCLK as a potential clock source for
the baudrate generator of UART on sama5d2 SoCs. Unlike the serial mode of
the USART offered by FLEXCOM, the UART does not provide a fractional part
that can be added to the clock divisor to obtain a more accurate result,
which greatly decreases the flexibility available for producing a higher
variety of baudrates. Now, with the last patch of the series, the driver
will check for a GCLK in the DT. If provided, whenever `atmel_set_termios`
is called, unless there is a fractional part, the driver will compare the
error rate between the desired baudrate and the actual baudrate obtained
through each of the available clock sources and will choose the clock source
with the lowest error rate. While at it, convert the DT binding
for UART/USART to json-schema, update the FLEXCOM binding to reference the
new UART/USART binding and differentiate between the SPI of USART and the
SPI of FLEXCOM.

The first three patches of this patch series depend on this patch series
converting atmel-flexcom bindings to json-schema:
