The uartlite device is a "soft" device and certain parameters (such as data bits, parity, and baud) are configured at synthesis time, and cannot be discovered at runtime. Fortunately, bindings for this device typically include some of these parameters (especially baud rate). Instead of silently letting Linux's termios drift away from what the hardware is actually doing, make the termios reflect the hardware, and prevent them from being changed. With this series applied, the user recieves an error message when they try to change these parameters: # stty parity stty: standard input: cannot perform all requested operations Changes in v3: - Use unevaluatedProperties: false instead of additionalProperties - Removed defaults for required properties - Remove warnings about unsupported termios - Set defaults for xlnx,data-bits and xlnx,use-parity Changes in v2: - Compare the baud computed with uart_get_baud_rate to pdata->baud, instead of just checking c_cflag. This will catch anything that messes with ispeed and ospeed. - Don't bother trying to set the initial termios. Instead, just skip warning if old is NULL. - Because we no longer use uart_set_options, just convert the devicetree properties directly to clflags.
