serial: set DTR in uart for kernel serial console
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was

This patch was dropped because it was nacked
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: serial: set DTR in uart for kernel serial console
From: Yinghai Lu <Yinghai.Lu@xxxxxxx>
Some UARTs on other side need host uart DTR is set, otherwise will not
receive char from the host that kernel is runing during kernel boot stage.
BTW: earlyprintk and early_uart are hard coded to set DTR/RTS.
