The behaviour of the UART poll_put_char infrastructure is inconsistent with respect to linefeed conversions. This in turn leads to difficulty using kdb on serial ports that are not also consoles (e.g. console=ttyAMA0,115200 kgdboc=ttyAMA1,115200).
The following drivers automatically convert '\n' to '\r\n' inside their own poll functions but the remaining seventeen do not: serial8250, cpm, pch_uart, serial_pxa, serial_txx9, This can be made fully consistent but performing the conversion in uart_poll_put_char(). A similar conversion is already made inside uart_console_write() but it is optional for drivers to use this function. Fortunately we can be confident the translation is safe because the (very common) 8250 already does this translation.
