I was only Cc:d for the imx patch (patch #7) and tried to verify the
claim there that "the serial core already assigns the passed
configuration to the uart port". That failed when I looked at my kernel
tree.

So it would be great, if you sent dependencies (or at least a cover
letter) to all recipients of a given patch to ease review. Also I want
to suggest to mention uart_set_rs485_config() in the commit log of the
imx patch (and probably the others) to simplify verifying the claim
there.

Thanks
Uwe
