Serge Semin 551e553f0d serial: 8250_mtk: Fix high-speed baud rates clamping 
Commit 7b668c064e ("serial: 8250: Fix max baud limit in generic 8250
port") fixed limits of a baud rate setting for a generic 8250 port.
In other words since that commit the baud rate has been permitted to be
within [uartclk / 16 / UART_DIV_MAX; uartclk / 16], which is absolutely
normal for a standard 8250 UART port. But there are custom 8250 ports,
which provide extended baud rate limits. In particular the Mediatek 8250
port can work with baud rates up to "uartclk" speed.

Normally that and any other peculiarity is supposed to be handled in a
custom set_termios() callback implemented in the vendor-specific
8250-port glue-driver. Currently that is how it's done for the most of
the vendor-specific 8250 ports, but for some reason for Mediatek a
solution has been spread out to both the glue-driver and to the generic
8250-port code. Due to that a bug has been introduced, which permitted the
extended baud rate limit for all even for standard 8250-ports. The bug
has been fixed by the commit 7b668c064e ("serial: 8250: Fix max baud
limit in generic 8250 port") by narrowing the baud rates limit back down to
the normal bounds. Unfortunately by doing so we also broke the
Mediatek-specific extended bauds feature.

A fix of the problem described above is twofold. First since we can't get
back the extended baud rate limits feature to the generic set_termios()
function and that method supports only a standard baud rates range, the
requested baud rate must be locally stored before calling it and then
restored back to the new termios structure after the generic set_termios()
finished its magic business. By doing so we still use the
serial8250_do_set_termios() method to set the LCR/MCR/FCR/etc. registers,
while the extended baud rate setting procedure will be performed later in
the custom Mediatek-specific set_termios() callback. Second since a true
baud rate is now fully calculated in the custom set_termios() method we
need to locally update the port timeout by calling the
uart_update_timeout() function. After the fixes described above are
implemented in the 8250_mtk.c driver, the Mediatek 8250-port should
get back to normally working with extended baud rates.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
