When a serial port continuously experiences input overrun from
(1) continuous receive characters from remote and or (2) hardware
issues, its interrupt handler can preempt other tasks especially
when the system is busy (ie. boot up period). This can cause other
tasks to get starved of processing time from the CPU.
When this dts binding is enabled and input overrun on the serial port
is detected, serial port receive will be throttled to give some breathing
room for processing other tasks. Value provided will be in milliseconds.

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.
