Merge tag 'tty-3.12-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty
Pull tty/serial driver patches from Greg KH: "Here's the big tty/serial driver pull request for 3.12-rc1. Lots of n_tty reworks to resolve some very long-standing issues, removing the 3-4 different locks that were taken for every character. This code has been beaten on for a long time in linux-next with no reported regressions. Other than that, a range of serial and tty driver updates and revisions. Full details in the shortlog" * tag 'tty-3.12-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty: (226 commits) hvc_xen: Remove unnecessary __GFP_ZERO from kzalloc serial: imx: initialize the local variable tty: ar933x_uart: add device tree support and binding documentation tty: ar933x_uart: allow to build the driver as a module ARM: dts: msm: Update uartdm compatible strings devicetree: serial: Document msm_serial bindings serial: unify serial bindings into a single dir serial: fsl-imx-uart: Cleanup duplicate device tree binding tty: ar933x_uart: use config_enabled() macro to clean up ifdefs tty: ar933x_uart: remove superfluous assignment of ar933x_uart_driver.nr tty: ar933x_uart: use the clk API to get the uart clock tty: serial: cpm_uart: Adding proper request of GPIO used by cpm_uart driver serial: sirf: fix the amount of serial ports serial: sirf: define macro for some magic numbers of USP serial: icom: move array overflow checks earlier TTY: amiserial, remove unnecessary platform_set_drvdata() serial: st-asc: remove unnecessary platform_set_drvdata() msm_serial: Send more than 1 character on the console w/ UARTDM msm_serial: Add support for non-GSBI UARTDM devices msm_serial: Switch clock consumer strings and simplify code ...

+* Atmel Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (USART)
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Should be "atmel,<chip>-usart"
+ The compatible <chip> indicated will be the first SoC to support an
+ additional mode or an USART new feature.
+- reg: Should contain registers location and length
+- interrupts: Should contain interrupt
+
+Optional properties:
+- atmel,use-dma-rx: use of PDC or DMA for receiving data
+- atmel,use-dma-tx: use of PDC or DMA for transmitting data
+- add dma bindings for dma transfer:
+ - dmas: DMA specifier, consisting of a phandle to DMA controller node,
+ memory peripheral interface and USART DMA channel ID, FIFO configuration.
+ Refer to dma.txt and atmel-dma.txt for details.
+ - dma-names: "rx" for RX channel, "tx" for TX channel.
+
+<chip> compatible description:
+- at91rm9200: legacy USART support
+- at91sam9260: generic USART implementation for SAM9 SoCs
+
+Example:
+- use PDC:
+ usart0: serial@fff8c000 {
+ compatible = "atmel,at91sam9260-usart";
+ reg = <0xfff8c000 0x4000>;
+ interrupts = <7>;
+ atmel,use-dma-rx;
+ atmel,use-dma-tx;
+ };
+
+- use DMA:
+ usart0: serial@f001c000 {
+ compatible = "atmel,at91sam9260-usart";
+ reg = <0xf001c000 0x100>;
+ interrupts = <12 4 5>;

+ dmas = <&dma0 2 0x3>,
