I wonder if this is the code location where this problem should be
addressed. Or alternatively don't let uart_get_rs485_mode() set
RS485_ENABLED (and other flags) if rs485_supported doesn't suggest that
this works?

I don't know how picky Greg is here, but formally you missed to add an
S-o-b line for the sender of this patch (i.e. you with your gmx
address).

Best regards
