Thanks for your suggestion.

I will fix those errors and also add the "jpg" in the next version.

Not sure if this got applied already, but you are missing the respective change to Documentation/devicetree/bindings/serial/fsl-lpuart.txt.

Please document the dma-names you use here. While you are at it, please also add the "ipg" clock-name.

This is wrong: Since the dma is performed by the dma engine rather than the uart, the first argument here needs to be the dma device pointer. In fact, dma_map_single is normally supposed to fail on the uart device as the dma_mask value should be zero. Not sure why this worked.

Please also change all references to "phys" -- it's not a phys address but a bus address. These are often the same, but that's not for the driver to know.
