OK, I will review the function to assert that the other bits are updated
accordingly.

If I look at 8250.c spin_lock_irqsave seems OK :-)
To be honest, it felt much better when a simpler driver than 8250 could
be used to copy from. Documentation/serial/driver (which is IMHO very
helpful) declares amba_pl011.c to be the reference implementation. It
uses neither tty_termios_encode_baud_rate nor
tty_port_tty_get()/tty_kref_put() :-(
Anyhow, I'll do my best to implement both requests.
Best regards
