From: Yonghan Ye yonghan.ye@unisoc.com Date: Wed, 4 Dec 2019 20:00:07 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] serial: sprd: Add clearing break interrupt operation

A break interrupt will be generated if the RX line was pulled low, which means some abnomal behaviors occurred of the UART. In this case, we still need to clear this break interrupt status, otherwise it will cause irq storm to crash the whole system.
