Contrary to what SMSC documentation says and unlike NS16C550A UARTs the
SMSC Super I/O IC claims compatibility with the SMSC UART implementation
does not support dividing the internal PLL clock by any divisor from 1
to 65535[1], with the exception of two magic divisors of 32769 and 32770
used respectively to select the high-speed data rates of 460800bps and
230400bps[2] if enabled on a port-by-port basis in with the Serial Port
Mode Register in the Device Configuration Space[3][4].
Instead empirical evidence indicates that the divisor, as stored in the
DLL and DLM register pair, has the range of 1 to 32767 only, and bit 7
of the DLM register (bit 15 of the divisor) effectively serves as a
selection bit for the prescaler from the base frequency of 7.3728MHz,
either 4 if the bit is 0, or 1 if the bit is 1 and high-speed operation
has been enabled with the Serial Port Mode Register.
So if high-speed operation has not been enabled, then say the values of
1 and 32769 (0x8001) written into the combined DLL and DLM register pair
both select the divisor of 1 and the baud rate of 115200bps.

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 Restructured Text 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.
