There is a generic serial binding for this already. As this ST property
hasn't been used upstream, it seems like it would be worth dropping it
and switching to the generic uart-has-rtscts one.

See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/serial/serial.txt

  - uart-has-rtscts: The presence of this property indicates that the
    UART has dedicated lines for RTS/CTS hardware flow control, and that
    they are available for use (wired and enabled by pinmux configuration).
    This depends on both the UART hardware and the board wiring.
    Note that this property is mutually-exclusive with "cts-gpios" and
    "rts-gpios" above.

Also you should put this in the board dtsi, as it is board dependent property.
By putting it here you are enabling hw-flow-control for all stih407-family
based boards.

regards,

Peter.
