You have From different to SoB. You need to fix this.
It can be done by setting corresponding values in the ~/.gitconfig
of your machine where you are making patches on.
Quick fix is to run
git commit --amend --author="ruihongluo <luoruihong@xxxxxxxxxx>"
and resend as a v2.
Code wise looks good to me, thank you for fixing this.
Perhaps it needs a Fixes tag, as
Fixes: 701c5e73b296 ("serial: 8250_dw: add fractional divisor support")
added before your SoB line. (Again, use `git commit --amend` to address
this.)

Also don't forget to add a changelog here for v2 to describe your changes.
