O-Subject: [AArch64 RHEL-7.3 qemu-kvm-rhev PATCH] RHEL-only: hw/char/pl011: fix SBSA reset
Bugzilla: 1266048

When booting Linux with an SBSA UART, e.g. when booting mach-virt
with ACPI, if the user types on the console during boot, then when
the login prompt appears she won't be able to log in. This is
because during boot the SBSA UART needs to be reset, but the SBSA
specification doesn't provide registers to enable/disable the FIFOs.
This patch observes a couple registers the SBSA UART does write to
in order to attempt to guess when a reset is needed, and then do it.
We risk losing some characters from the FIFO if the guess is wrong,
but the risk of that should be quite low.
