This part is fine, but...

I'm a bit worried about this. If I remember correctly, we didn't set
the set_termios hook by default in the past because somebody was using
a type of clk that can't handle rate rounding and ended up using
improper clock frequency for some baud rates. Unfortunately I can't
remember who had that problem and on which platform.

On the other hand, I'm not sure if drivers should worry about things
like that. This should be done the other way around. The platform
with the problem should unset the p->set_termios hook in a quirk, but
by default everybody would use dw8250_set_termios.


Thanks,
