From e44aabd649c80e8be16ede3ed3cbff6fb2561ca9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marcus Folkesson Date: Tue, 30 Aug 2011 13:53:10 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] serial: pxa: work around for errata #20 Errata E20: UART: Character Timeout interrupt remains set under certain software conditions. Implication: The software servicing the UART can be trapped in an infinite loop.
