commit 93bcefd4c6bad4c69dbc4edcd3fbf774b24d930d upstream.

We disable transmission interrupt (clear SCSCR_TIE) after all data has been transmitted
(if uart_circ_empty(xmit)). While transmitting, if the data is still in the tty buffer,
re-enable the SCSCR_TIE bit, which was done at sci_start_tx().
This is unnecessary processing, wasting CPU operation if the data transmission length is large.
And further, transmit end, FIFO empty bits disabling have also been performed in the step above.

commit 6734330654dac550f12e932996b868c6d0dcb421 upstream.

In case ioremap fails, the fix returns -ENOMEM to avoid NULL
pointer dereferences.
Multiple places use port.membase.

commit f4817843e39ce78aace0195a57d4e8500a65a898 upstream.

There are two other drivers that bind to mrvl,mmp-uart and both of them
assume register shift of 2 bits. There are device trees that lack the
property and rely on that assumption.

If this driver wins the race to bind to those devices, it should behave
the same as the older deprecated driver.

commit 27cfb3a53be46a54ec5e0bd04e51995b74c90343 upstream.

Some tty line disciplines do not have a receive buf callback, so
properly check for that before calling it.  If they do not have this
callback, just eat the character quietly, as we can't fail this call.
