Subject: [PATCH v5 1/6] dt-bindings: serial: Add binding for rs485 receiver enable GPIO

From: Heiko Stuebner <[email protected]>

RS485 has two signals to control transmissions "driver enable" (DE) and
"receiver enable" (RE). DE is already handled via the uarts RTS signal
while the RE signal on most implementations doesn't get handled
separately at all.

As there still will be cases where this is needed though add a gpio
property for declaring this signal pin.
