*
* Supports full modem status lines, break, hardware flow control. Does not
* support software flow control, since I do not know how to enable it in hw.
*
* This driver is a essentially new implementation. I initially dug

/*
* The following describes what I learned from studying the old
* ark3116.c driver, disassembling the windows driver, and some lucky
* guesses. Since I do not have any datasheet or other
* documentation, inaccuracies are almost guaranteed.
*
* Some specs for the ARK3116 can be found here:
* http://web.archive.org/web/20060318000438/
* www.arkmicro.com/en/products/view.php?id=10
* On that page, 2 GPIO pins are mentioned: I assume these are the
* OUT1 and OUT2 pins of the UART, so I added support for those
* through the MCR. Since the pins are not available on my hardware,
* I could not verify this.
* Also, it states there is "on-chip hardware flow control". I have
* discovered how to enable that. Unfortunately, I do not know how to
* enable XON/XOFF (software) flow control, which would need support
* from the chip as well to work. Because of the wording on the web
* page there is a real possibility the chip simply does not support
* software flow control.
*
* I got my ark3116 as part of a mobile phone adapter cable. On the
* PCB, the following numbered contacts are present:
*
* 1:- +5V
* 2:o DTR
* 3:i RX
* 4:i DCD
* 5:o RTS
* 6:o TX
* 7:i RI
* 8:i DSR
* 10:- 0V
* 11:i CTS
*
* On my chip, all signals seem to be 3.3V, but 5V tolerant. But that
* may be different for the one you have ;-).
*
* The windows driver limits the registers to 0-F, so I assume there
* are actually 16 present on the device.
*
* On an UART interrupt, 4 bytes of data come in on the interrupt
* endpoint. The bytes are 0xe8 IIR LSR MSR.
*
* The baudrate seems to be generated from the 12MHz crystal, using
* 4-times subsampling. So quot=12e6/(4*baud). Also see description
* of register E.
*
* Registers 0-7:
* These seem to be the same as for a regular 16450. The FCR is set
* to UART_FCR_DMA_SELECT (0x8), I guess to enable transfers between
* the UART and the USB bridge/DMA engine.
*
* Register 8:
* By trial and error, I found out that bit 0 enables hardware CTS,
* stopping TX when CTS is +5V. Bit 1 does the same for RTS, making
* RTS +5V when the 3116 cannot transfer the data to the USB bus
* (verified by disabling the reading URB). Note that as far as I can
* tell, the windows driver does NOT use this, so there might be some
* hardware bug or something.
*
* According to a patch provided here
* https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/200907261419.50702.linux@rainbow-software.org
* the ARK3116 can also be used as an IrDA dongle. Since I do not have
* such a thing, I could not investigate that aspect. However, I can
* speculate ;-).
*
* - IrDA encodes data differently than RS232. Most likely, one of
* the bits in registers 9..E enables the IR ENDEC (encoder/decoder).
* - Depending on the IR transceiver, the input and output need to be
* inverted, so there are probably bits for that as well.
* - IrDA is half-duplex, so there should be a bit for selecting that.
*
* This still leaves at least two registers unaccounted for. Perhaps
* The chip can do XON/XOFF or CRC in HW?
*
* Register 9:
* Set to 0x00 for IrDA, when the baudrate is initialised.
*
* Register A:
* Set to 0x01 for IrDA, at init.
*
* Register B:
* Set to 0x01 for IrDA, 0x00 for RS232, at init.
*
* Register C:
* Set to 00 for IrDA, at init.
*
* Register D:
* Set to 0x41 for IrDA, at init.
*
* Register E:
* Somekind of baudrate override. The windows driver seems to set
* this to 0x00 for normal baudrates, 0x01 for 460800, 0x02 for 921600.
* Since 460800 and 921600 cannot be obtained by dividing 3MHz by an integer,
* it could be somekind of subdivisor thingy.
* However,it does not seem to do anything: selecting 921600 (divisor 3,
* reg E=2), still gets 1 MHz. I also checked if registers 9, C or F would
* work, but they don't.
*
* Register F: unknown
