Neither registers shadowing is functionally needed as all the registers are read-write, nor the shadowing makes much sense for speed-up, as most speed critical reads/writes (of data Rx/Tx registers) are not shadowed anyway. Moreover, the shadowing code is obviously pure overhead on the write path. Get rid of the shadowing code and variables due to above considerations. Signed-off-by: Sergey Organov <sorganov@xxxxxxxxx> --- NOTE: This patch is extracted from patch series "[PATCH 0/8] serial: imx: work-around for hardware RX flood, and then isr improvements" due to objection of Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>. I still believe this is an improvement, so I re-submit the patch separately. drivers/tty/serial/imx.c | 65 ++-------------------------------------- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 62 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/tty/serial/imx.c b/drivers/tty/serial/imx.c index 757825edb0cd..f4e2db21d0fe 100644 --- a/drivers/tty/serial/imx.c +++ b/drivers/tty/serial/imx.c @@ -210,13 +210,6 @@ struct imx_port { struct mctrl_gpios *gpios; - /* shadow registers */ - unsigned int ucr1; - unsigned int ucr2; - unsigned int ucr3; - unsigned int ucr4; - unsigned int ufcr; - /* DMA fields */ unsigned int dma_is_enabled:1; unsigned int dma_is_rxing:1; @@ -273,59 +266,14 @@ static const struct of_device_id imx_uart_dt_ids[] = { }; MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, imx_uart_dt_ids); -static void imx_uart_writel(struct imx_port *sport, u32 val, u32 offset) +static inline void imx_uart_writel(struct imx_port *sport, u32 val, u32 offset) { - switch (offset) { - case UCR1: - sport->ucr1 = val; - break; - case UCR2: - sport->ucr2 = val; - break; - case UCR3: - sport->ucr3 = val; - break; - case UCR4: - sport->ucr4 = val; - break; - case UFCR: - sport->ufcr = val; - break; - default: - break; - } writel(val, sport->port.membase + offset); } -static u32 imx_uart_readl(struct imx_port *sport, u32 offset) +static inline u32 imx_uart_readl(struct imx_port *sport, u32 offset) { - switch (offset) { - case UCR1: - return sport->ucr1; - break; - case UCR2: - /* - * UCR2_SRST is the only bit in the cached registers that might - * differ from the value that was last written.
