UART_XMIT_SIZE is the size of the circular buffer, fifosize is the size of the fifo. I don't get what you get by dividing by the fifosize. I would have expected something like: u->timeout * min(UART_XMIT_SIZE, u->fifosize) Can you explain, maybe in a comment along the code for the next person not understanding? I wonder if the individual driver is the right place this must be fixed in or if there should be (or even exists) some help form the serial framework?!
