This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
Revert "serial: imx: initialized DMA w/o HW flow enabled"
to my tty git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git
in the tty-linus branch.
The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)
The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: Revert "serial: imx: initialized DMA w/o HW flow enabled"
This reverts commit 068500e08dc87ea9a453cc4a500cf3ab28d0f936.
According to some tests, SDMA support is broken at least for i.MX6 without
HW flow control. Different forms of data-corruption appear either with
the ROM firmware for the SDMA controller as well as when loading Freescale
provided SDMA firmware versions 1.1 or 3.1.
