Many drivers currently do: switch (cflag & CSIZE) { case CS5: lcr = UART_LCR_WLEN5; break; case CS6: lcr = UART_LCR_WLEN6; break; case CS7: lcr = UART_LCR_WLEN7; break; default: case CS8: lcr = UART_LCR_WLEN8; break; } We can simplify it to: lcr = UART_LCR_WLEN(tty_get_char_size(cflag)); if we define UART_LCR_WLEN() properly first. So UART_LCR_WLEN is defined in this series and all such drivers are converted too. We could go even further: to define something like uart_compute_LCR() and compute there whole LCR based even on parity+stop fields in cflag. I will try if it is worth it later. But this series on its own drops some duplicated lines already.
