Hi,

The receiver should not be enabled until the port is opened so drop the bogus call to start rx from the setup code which is shared with the console implementation.
This was added for some confused implementation of hibernation support, but the receiver must not be started unconditionally as the port may not have been open when hibernating the system.
Could you provide a motivation for your patch in the description? Is patch needed for something (perhaps a future patch in the series)? Is it fixing a bug? Does it save power? Is the call harmless but cleaner to get rid of?

FWIW, I found at least one thing that's broken by your patch. If you enable kgdb (but _not_ "kgdboc_earlycon") and then add "kgdbwait" to the kernel command line parameters then things will be broken after your patch. You'll drop into the debugger but can't interact with it. The "kgdboc_earlycon" path handles this because of "qcom_geni_serial_enable_early_read()" but it doesn't seem like there's anything that handles it for normal kgdb. If you drop in the debugger later it'll probably work if you've got an "agetty" running because that'll enable the RX path.
