These definitions should be above where you use them.

Were these existing files not documented already? If not, they should
be a separate patch we can take now.

What is that line for?

Why are these all "line_" now? What is wrong with just "cts" and "dsr"
and the like? That keeps them in sync with the "rx" and "tx" files,
right?

October ends in a few days, I think this needs some more work.

And trees should probably be closed now, this looks like 6.8 stuff.

Please explain why "unsigned long" is needed here.

Shouldn't we need these states for rx/tx already?

These are bit values (more on that below), so please explicitly set them
to a value.

You never use this, so it is not needed at all.

How can default ever happen?

Again, I thought we supported rx/tx already? If so, this should be
split out into "redo the rx/tx into a new style" and then "add new
attributes". Well maybe, more below...

Let's ask why you are using bits at all here. Why? What is it helping
with? Is it faster than a normal "bool" value? I am guessing not
(requires mask and test instead of just test).

So let's just make these individual values in the structure, that makes
things much simpler and easier and you never have to worry about bit
field values anywhere. And the end code will be easier to read as well
as probably faster (which matters in this codepath, right?)

Not your fault, but this should NOT be "dev_info()" but rather,
"dev_err()", or "dev_warn()".

This looks ready-made for the completion.h usage so we always make sure
to drop the mutex when done.

Again, I thought we had rx/tx already? If not, how was that controlled
today?
