Hi,

Almost there.. Few more DMA related comments and some cosmetic
things to fix below.

Please change the "if we should coexist" to "in order to coexist".

All drivers should be able to coexist with the other drivers.

The wording above makes it sound like it "might be ok" to not
coexist with other drivers :)

Also 3630 has uart4 in addition to omap4.

Then, please don't use any ifdef else settings, that will cause problems
for the multiboot. Instead, set the max number to 4 and allocate as many
instances as passed from the platform data.

You need to check the result from omap_request_dma. On a busy system
it's quite possible that all DMA channels are taken and you need to
dynamically fall back to PIO transfer instead.

Looks like this function is easy to fix for that. Maybe you also
need to reprogram something in the UART for switching between DMA
and PIO?

You need to check for the result for omap_request_dma here too and
dynamically switch to PIO if you don't get a DMA channel.

Do you have the board related patches somewhere so people can
actually test this driver?
