When a UART port is newly registered, uart_configure_port() seeks to
deassert RS485 Transmit Enable by setting the RTS bit in port->mctrl.
However a number of UART drivers interpret a set RTS bit as *assertion*
instead of deassertion: Affected drivers include those using
serial8250_em485_config() (except 8250_bcm2835aux.c) and some using
mctrl_gpio (e.g. imx.c).
Since the interpretation of the RTS bit is driver-specific, it is not
suitable as a means to centrally deassert Transmit Enable in the serial
core. Instead, the serial core must call on drivers to deassert it in
their driver-specific way. One way to achieve that is to call
->rs485_config(). It implicitly deasserts Transmit Enable.
So amend uart_configure_port() and uart_resume_port() to invoke
uart_rs485_config(). That allows removing calls to uart_rs485_config()
from drivers' ->probe() hooks and declaring the function static.
Skip any invocation of ->set_mctrl() if RS485 is enabled. RS485 has no
hardware flow control, so the modem control lines are irrelevant and
need not be touched. When leaving RS485 mode, reset the modem control
lines to the state stored in port->mctrl. That way, UARTs which are
muxed between RS485 and RS232 transceivers drive the lines correctly
when switched to RS232. (serial8250_do_startup() historically raises
the OUT1 modem signal because otherwise interrupts are not signaled on
ancient PC UARTs, but I believe that no longer applies to modern,
RS485-capable UARTs and is thus safe to be skipped.)
imx.c modifies port->mctrl whenever Transmit Enable is asserted and
deasserted. Stop it from doing that so port->mctrl reflects the RS232
line state.
8250_omap.c deasserts Transmit Enable on ->runtime_resume() by calling
->set_mctrl(). Because that is now a no-op in RS485 mode, amend the
function to call serial8250_em485_stop_tx().
fsl_lpuart.c retrieves and applies the RS485 device tree properties
after registering the UART port. Because applying now happens on
registration in uart_configure_port(), move retrieval of the properties
ahead of uart_add_one_port().
