As per my testing, am335x + EDMA, am437x + EDMA, dra7xx + EDMA and dra72x + EDMA require OMAP_DMA_TX_KICK quirk. However when using SDMA OMAP_DMA_TX_KICK is not needed (I tested on dra7xx platform). So, it can be concluded that when using EDMA with 8250 UART tx kick is needed. -- Regards Vignesh -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-serial" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
