Oh dear. :-( This needs a rebase on current tty-next.

Patch [7/7] is already in tty-next as commit fe7f0fa43cef ("serial:
8250: Support rs485 devicetree properties").

Patch [4/7] likewise. Note that it's not safe to call ->rs485_config()
already in serial8250_register_8250_port() if the driver uses UPF_IOREMAP
because ioremapping happens later via serial8250_config_port() ->
serial8250_request_std_resource(), so you'll get an oops for those
drivers when deasserting RTS early on. Been there... :-(

Patch [6/7]: Ugh, another duplication of the ->rs485_config() callback.
Just use the generic one introduced by commit 283e096ffb70 ("serial:
8250: Deduplicate ->rs485_config() callback") if possible.

The other patches appear to handle chip-specific needs. It's now
possible to implement these in ->rs485_start_tx() and ->rs485_stop_tx()
hooks, as introduced by commit 058bc104f7ca ("serial: 8250: Generalize
rs485 software emulation"). Refer to commit f93bf7589114 ("serial:
8250_bcm2835aux: Support rs485 software emulation") for an example.

The DTR-for-RE thing seems a bit nonstandard, I'm not sure if this is
eligible for mainline or if it's something that should be kept in your
downstream tree. But no harm in submitting it to the list.

Thanks,

Lukas
