No, it cannot be a parameter in the Device Tree, as what we're talking about is not hardware description, but configuration of the hardware for particular use cases. > This could be a Kconfig item (but something's not very good either). > Probably the best solution is to adapt some kind of IOCTL (or control via SYSFS). Greg, Jiri, perhaps you could comment on what would be the appropriate user-space interface to use or add to be able to configure such aspects of a UART controller ?
