Define a generic UART_LCR_WLEN() macro with a size argument. It can be
used to encode byte size into an LCR value. Therefore we can use it to
simplify the drivers using tty_get_char_size() in the next patches.

I'm all for this, but why does it need to be in a uapi .h file?

I'd love to put it somewhere else. But I didn't find an appropriate place. Should I put it simply to
include/linux/serial_core.h
or
include/linux/serial.h
? Or create a new:
include/linux/serial_reg.h
to contain only this def?

thanks,
