[PATCH 2/4] serial: amba-pl011: Introduce set_uartclk_rate vendor flag

From: Kartik Rajput

Date: Wed Feb 25 2026 - 02:14:59 EST


The NVIDIA Tegra264 UART relies on configuring the UART clock rate
directly to program the desired baud rate.

Introduce the set_uartclk_rate vendor flag. When set, the driver
uses clk_set_rate() to program the UART clock to the desired baud
rate and clk_round_rate() to determine the maximum supported baud
rate.
