[PATCH v2 0/2] serial: 8250_dw: Add support for UltraRISC DP1000 uart

[Jia Wang via B4 Relay]

This is version 2 of the patch series.  
Previous version was sent via local SMTP, some recipients received it.  
This series is now sent via official web endpoint.

This patch series adds support for the UltraRISC DP1000 UART controller.

The series includes two patches:
1. Update device tree bindings to document the DP1000 UART compatible string
   and required properties.
2. Add driver support in the 8250_dw driver by handling the DP1000-specific
   initialization and configuration.

The patches have been tested on Ultrarisc DP1000 development board with
Linux v7.0-rc2, verifying basic UART functionality and runtime suspend/resume.

Changes in v2:
- Rebased on Linux v7.0-rc4 (previously on v7.0-rc2).
- Reordered patch series: DT binding patch comes before driver changes.
- Updated commit message for DT binding patch.
- Link to v1: https://patch.msgid.link/20260316-ultrarisc-serial-v1-0-c464f3e933a5@ultrarisc.com

We see this from the diff. Why this is not compatible with
snps,dw-apb-uart? What are the differences. You have entire commit msg
to explain the hardware.

Drop, not needed.

So just enum with the snps one.

A nit, subject: drop second/last, redundant "bindings". The
"dt-bindings" prefix is already stating that these are bindings.
See also:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.17-rc3/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/submitting-patches.rst#L18

And anything can be "update". Be specific. Look at other commits how
commits and their subjects are written.

Best regards,
Krzysztof

Missed period at the end.

Seems unrequired.

But to make sure, can you elaborate what's going on here?
What is the reads from UCV and CPR registers?
