Hi,
I do not think this patch alone will work on 4.14.
An earlier pair of patches which implements the "marvell,armada-38x-uart" quirk is present on the other kernel versions, but I do see it as far back as 4.14.
The following two patches are the ones which add support for that compatible string:
b7639b0b15dd serial: 8250_dw: Limit dw8250_tx_wait_empty quirk to armada-38x devices
914eaf935ec7 serial: 8250_dw: Allow TX FIFO to drain before writing to UART_LCR
Cheers,
Joshua Scott
