+ Say Y here if you wish to use the PDC to do DMA transfers to
+ and from the Atmel AT91 / AT32 serial port. In order to
+ actually use DMA transfers, make sure that the use_dma_tx

+ appropriately for each port.
+
+ Note that break and error handling currently doesn't work
+ properly when DMA is enabled. Make sure that ports where
+ this matters don't use DMA.
