Cover letter [PATCH 0/2] tty: serial: OMAP: work around broken driver, IP block

[ This series is targeted for merging during v3.3-rc ]

On v3.3-rc1, the OMAP serial console doesn't behave properly when power management is enabled (the default with omap2plus_defconfig). This seems to be due to a combination of a silicon bug in the UART IP block and broken FIFO settings in the OMAP serial driver.

This patch series attempts to work around these problems. The workarounds are not perfect; see the patch descriptions for more details.

Tested on OMAP3530 BeagleBoard. This series will need to be tested on OMAP2 and OMAP4 before it is ready to merge.
