Thanks for pointing me.
But wouldn't it be better copying mctrl?
In any case, serial8250_register_8250_port() will call:
- uart_add_one_port()
- uart_configure_port()
- port->ops->set_mctrl(port, mctrl);

So it would be a double call IMHO.
Are there any drawbacks on doing what I'm saying?
Maybe I'm missing something.
