[PATCH] mpc52xx_uart: report serial errors to users

["René Bürgel" <r.buergel@unicontrol.de>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 524 bytes --]

Hi! This patch adds the capability to the mpc52xx-uart to report framing 
errors, parity errors, breaks and overruns to userspace. These values 
may be requested in userspace by using the ioctl TIOCGICOUNT.

Signed-off-by: René Bürgel <r.buergel@unicontrol.de>

Kind regards, René Bürgel
