The CTSC and CTS bits affect operation of the CTS/RTS hardware flow
control signal (depending on whether the device is in DCE or DTE mode) and
are not related to DMA. When in RS-232 mode, the driver is using the
automatic CTSC control based on a rxFIFO fill level unless the state of
the CTS signal is explictly set via an ioctl call.

Previous improvements to the imx serial driver have resulted on
imx_disable_dma() only being called on shutdown, by which point the
serial core has already correctly deasserted CTS.

Testing shows that without this handling in imx_disable_dma() the CTS
signal state is set correctly when the device is open and TIOCM_RTS is
set/cleared via the TIOCMGET ioctl. The CTS signal is also correctly
deasserted when the device file is closed.

When in RS-485 mode, the driver uses the CTS signal very differently and
appears to control it via calls to imx_port_rts_active() and
imx_port_rts_inactive().

This configuration of the CTSC and CTS bits are therefore not needed.

With that block kept CTS set once more to inactive. So the block doesn't
hurt and is "only" superflous, right?

The commit log doesn't mention ATEN, I guess that one just doesn't
matter any more at this stage? Would be nice to point out though.

Best regards

That's my understanding, yes.

Hmm, going to need to look at this again...

Patch 5 adds clearing ATEN into imx_stop_rx(), which is sensible given
that it's the aging timer on the rxFIFO, but I don't think we should be
removing that from here before it's in imx_stop_rx().
