From: sudheer veliseti <sudheer.o...@gmail.com>
build config for DMA based UART driver in AST2500.
Total Available UARTs in AST2500 are 4
Signed-off-by: sudheer veliseti <sudheer.o...@gmail.com>
---
Changes from v3->v4:
- config name changed to SERIAL_AST_DMA_UART
- new config AST_UART_DMA_RX_INTERRUPT introduced
for selectin between DMA interrupt based RX vs timer based uart RX
Changes in v2->v3:
- change logs added

+ UART driver with DMA support for Aspeed BMC AST25XX.
+ this driver supports UARTs in AST2500. It uses

+ This config is Enabled by default,which means Rx part
+ of UART is handled by DMA interrupt.
+ if the version of chip AST2500 doesn't support
+ DMA interrupt based RX,then Disable this option.Refer
