Previously 8250_dma used a circular xmit->buf as DMA output buffer. This causes messages that wrap around in the circular buffer to be transmitted using 2 DMA transfers. Depending on baud rate and processor load this can cause an interchar gap in the middle of the message. On the receiving end the gap may cause a short receive timeout, possibly long enough to terminate a DMA transfer, but too short to restart a receive DMA transfer in time thus causing a receive buffer overrun. This is especially a problem for devices with high speed UARTs (HSU) where even deep 64 byte FIFO's are not sufficient to handle interrupt latency. The circular buffer has now been replaced by kfifo which requires a SG list with a single entry, which still causes 2 dma transfers when a wrap around occurs. Fix this by allowing up to 2 entries in the sgl.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
