On second thought, there are way too many changes to pch_uart that are required before this patch can really be applied prior to 3.4. I suspect these are not all appropriate for -stable. I'd be happy just getting this into 3.4.11. 2588aba002d14e938c2f56d299ecf3e7ce1302a5 cherry-picks cleanly to 3.4.
