Hi, Alan,

Thanks for your comments!
Some question for them below,

do we just leave the .major & .minor as NULL in struct uart_driver for 
dynamic allocation?

I think you mean getting the number of uarts from dt and dynamically 
allocate their port structure?

We will add in V4

just simply use code like "termios->c_cflag &= ~CMSPAR" ?

you mean something like this part ?

/* Don't rewrite B0 */
if (tty_termios_baud_rate(termios))
tty_termios_encode_baud_rate(termios, baud, baud);

it will be fixed :)
