[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH 4/4] ar71xx: restore support for boot console with arbitrary baud rates

[Sungbo Eo]

Commit 1bfbf2de6df9 ("ar71xx: serial: core: add support for boot console
with arbitrary baud rates") added support for arbitrary baud rates which
enabled 250000 baud rate for Yun. But the patch was not ported to kernel
4.9, and since then the kernel set its baud rate to 9600. This commit ports
the patch to kernel 4.14, thereby restoring the serial console of Yun.

+Subject: [RFC] serial: core: add support for boot console with arbitrary
+ baud rates
+
+The Arduino Yun uses a baud rate of 250000 by default. The serial is
+going over the Atmel ATmega and is used to connect to this chip.
+Without this patch Linux wants to switch the console to 9600 Baud.
+
+With this patch Linux will use the configured baud rate and not a
+default one specified in uart_register_driver().
