Hi Martin,

so the main question is why is this a config file in the first place? So far all other drivers have expressed UART settings via DT (or even via ACPI). If we are just getting the baudrates, then better have this in DT. Since otherwise we end up with board specific filesystems again where different config files need to be installed. That is really not useful in the end.
What is actually in these config files? Can we have some parsing and friendly display tool in bluez.git like we have for other manufactures.
Regards
Marcel
