Since these devices will work (just not with the extra-high
baudrates) when driven as a "standard" 16550, you can indeed
just add a property to declare the device supports this stuff.
But please also declare the device to be such a special device
in its "compatible" property. So you end up with something like
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
{
reg = <1 3f8>;
device_type = "serial";
compatible = "smsc,12345", "ns16550a", "pnpPNP,501";
clock-frequency = 1843200;
smsc-multipliers; # <--- there's the new thing
}
