[PATCH v2][bfin-sport-uart] Walk around RX underflow hardware issue in 32-bit SPORT RX reading

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If another interrupt fires while doing a 32-bit read from RX FIFO,
a fake RX underflow error will be generated.  So disable interrupts
to prevent interruption while reading the FIFO.
