Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/83xx: Make serial ports work on
MPC8315E-RDB w/FSL U-Boots
FSL U-Boots use /soc8...@e0000000 node to search and fixup
serial nodes' clock-frequency properties. Though in upstream
kernels we use new naming convention -- for IMMR address
space dts files specify /i...@e0000000 nodes.
This makes FSL U-Boots fail to fixup the clock frequencies,
and that leads to serial ports misbehaviour. We can
workaround the issue by filling the clock frequency values manually.
Freescale BSP is for customer who needs the out-of-box experience.
It's
better tested, but doesn't update very frequently. I would suggest
the
customer to use the upstream u-boot, if they decide to use latest
upstream kernel.

Agreed. However I don't think there is any harm w/the patch as
upstream u-boot will update the property.
