serial: 8250_omap: Avoid FIFO corruption caused by MDR1 access
commitd96f04d347
upstream. It has been observed that once per 300-1300 port openings the first transmitted byte is being corrupted on AM3352 ("v" written to FIFO appeared as "e" on the wire). It only happened if single byte has been transmitted right after port open, which means, DMA is not used for this transfer and the corruption never happened afterwards. Therefore I've carefully re-read the MDR1 errata (link below), which says "when accessing the MDR1 registers that causes a dummy under-run condition that will freeze the UART in IrDA transmission. In UART mode, this may corrupt the transferred data". Strictly speaking, omap_8250_mdr1_errataset() performs a read access and if the value is the same as should be written, exits without errata-recommended FIFO reset. A brief check of the serial_omap_mdr1_errataset() from the competing omap-serial driver showed it has no read access of MDR1. After removing the read access from omap_8250_mdr1_errataset() the data corruption never happened any more. Link: https://www.ti.com/lit/er/sprz360i/sprz360i.pdf Fixes:61929cf016
