serial: pl011: implement workaround for CTS clear event issue Problem Observed: - interrupt status is set by rising or falling edge on CTS line - interrupt status is cleared on a .0. to .1. transition of the interrupt-clear register bit 1. - interrupt-clear register is reset by hardware once the interrupt status is .0.. Remark: It seems not possible to read this register back by the CPU though, but internally this register exists. - when simultaneous set and reset event on the interrupt status happens, then the set-event has priority and the status remains .1.. As a result the interrupt-clear register is not reset to .0., and no new .0. to .1. transition can be detected on it when writing a .1. to it. This implies race condition, the clear must be performed at least one UARTCLK the riding edge of CTS RIS interrupt. Fix: Instead of resetting UART as done in commit c16d51a32bbb61ac8fd96f78b5ce2fccfe0fb4c3 "amba pl011: workaround for uart registers lockup" do the following: write .0. and then .1. to the interrupt-clear register to make sure that this transition is detected. According to the datasheet writing a .0. does not have any effect, but actually it allows to reset the internal interrupt-clear register. Take into account: The .0. needs to last at least for one clk_uart clock period (~ 38 MHz, 26.08ns) This way we can do away with the tasklet and keep only a tiny fix triggered by the variant flag introduced in this patch.
