From: Dmitry Fink Date: Mon, 8 Jul 2013 10:04:44 +0000 (+0300) Subject: OMAP: UART: Keep the TX fifo full when possible X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c4415084218c68c5ee2fc583431e89a78d896b19;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git OMAP: UART: Keep the TX fifo full when possible Current logic results in interrupt storm since the fifo is constantly below the threshold level. Change the logic to fill all the available spaces in the fifo as long as we have data to minimize the possibilty of underflow and elimiate excessive interrupts.
