Thanks for spotting this.

Documentation I have says the same.

Nevertheless I would like to have Heikki's Ack before going with this
one.

Moreover, some tests on Baytrail and Cherrytrail platforms should be
performed. Do you have a test case step-by-step to reproduce the issue?

It might also explain the following (would be nice to test with this
revert reverted):

commit f967fc8f165fadb72166f2bd4785094b3ca21307
Author: Frederic Danis <frederic.danis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

    Revert "serial: 8250_dma: don't bother DMA with small transfers"


See my comments regarding to code below.

Better to use closer to documentation, i.e.

_RTS_DIS_OVRD

Perhaps we need to clear it otherwise to be sure

something like

offset = pdata->dev_desc->prv_offset + LPSS_GENERAL;
val = readl(pdata->mmio_base + offset);
if (..._AFCE)
 val |= LPSS_GENERAL_UART_RTS_DIS_OVRD;
else
 val &= ~LPSS_GENERAL_UART_RTS_DIS_OVRD;
writel(val, pdata->mmio_base +
offset);
