Hello,

changes since v1
(https://lore.kernel.org/linux-serial/[email protected])

 - Fix author to be my Capable Hub identity for proper attribution
 - Rebase to more recent next
 - Actually build test (rant: For mips compile coverage of an
   allmodconfig build is rather bad)
 - Two compile fixes (I spare you and me the details)
 - patches #2 and #5 are new, originating from suggestions in v1
   feedback
 - slight commit log improvements (Ilpo Järvinen)
