Blackfin Serial Driver: annotate anomalies 05000215 and 05000099
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Add some comments for how these anomalies are addressed:

05000215 - UART TX Interrupt Masked Erroneously
We always clear ETBEI within last UART TX interrupt to end
a string.  It is always set when starting a new tx transfer.

05000099 - UART Line Status Register (UART_LSR) Bits Are Not Updated at
the Same Time
This anomaly affects driver only in POLL code where multi bits of
UART_LSR are checked. It doesn't affect current bfin_5xx.c driver.
