Interesting. My further investigations led me to the omap-serial driver, which sets Auto-CTS for the port only when a certain flag is set, and it appears to be never set, even with the latest version of the driver (I'm running kernel 3.12). I had to patch the driver to force that flag. Maybe I should go back and look at the 3.8 version to see if it's something that worked back then but then broke in the process of upgrading.
