This helps, but it only addresses one part of one of the 4 reasons I listed as motivation for my revert. For example serial8250_do_shutdown() also clearly intends to disable the FIFOs.
OK. So, let's fix that :-)
By all means, it would be really nice to push forward and fix the garbage issue on JZ4780, as well as the transmission issue on AM335x.
AM335x is a wildly popular platform, and it's not funny to break it. So, let's please stop discussing which board we'll break and just fix both.
