These are using OR logic with potentially volatile data. Shouldn't we mask
unused bits in UART_MCR in case of up->gpios != NULL?

Sorry, I don't see, which bits you are referring to? Could you please be
a bit more specific with the variable / macro meant (example)?

I meant that we double write values in the out() which might have some
consequences, though I hope nothing wrong with it happens.

Where is the double write to a register? Sorry, I fail to spot it.

Not to the one register. From the functional point of view the same signal is
set up twice: once per UART register, once per GPIO pins.

In the in() we read the all bits in the register.

As now I look at the implementation of mctrl_gpio_get_outputs(),
I think we rather get helpers for conversion between TIOCM and UART_MCR values,
so, they can be used in get_mctrl() / set_mctrl() and above.

Do you something like this in mind?

More likely

static inline int serial8250_MCR_to_TIOCM(int mcr)

MSR_to_TIOCM (see below) ...

{
	int tiocm = 0;

	if (mcr & ...)
		tiocm |= ...;
	...

	return tiocm;
}

static inline int serial8250_TIOCM_to_MCR(int tiocm)
{
	... in a similar way ...
}

While implementing such wrapper functions I noticed, that get_mctrl() /
set_mctrl() need TIOCM->MCR and MSR->TIOCM (notice MSR vs MCR here) but
serial8250_in_MCR() needs MCR->TIOCM. So there is not that much
overlay here. Additionally the wrappers would need to handle all bits
and only some of them are needed in serial8250_in/out_MCR(), so I would
need to add masking here as well.

For my taste its not really worth adding these wrappers as they won't
make things much clearer (if at all).

Thanks,
Stefan
