[PATCH] serial: 8250_dw: Do not bailout on UCV read returning zero

From: Vamshi Gajjela
Date: Sun Dec 31 2023 - 13:30:06 EST


Designware UART has optional feature FIFO_MODE to implement FIFO.
Encoding FIFO capabilities through Component Parameter Register CPR is
optional and it can be enabled using parameter UART_ADD_ENCODED_PARAMS.

Driver can exercise fifo capabilities by decoding CPR if implemented
or from cpr_val provided from the dw8250_platform_data otherwise.

dw8250_setup_port() checks for CPR or cpr_val to determine FIFO size
only when Component Version (UCV) is non-zero. Bailing out early on UCV
read returning zero will leave fifosize as zero and !UART_CAP_FIFO,
hence prevent early return and continue to process CPR or cpr_val for
the driver to utilize FIFO.

Non-zero UCV implies ADDITIONAL_FEATURES=1, preventing early return
will not be an overhead here.
