Designware UART has optional feature FIFO_MODE to implement FIFO. Encoding FIFO capabilities through Component Parameter Register CPR is optional and it can be enabled using parameter UART_ADD_ENCODED_PARAMS. Driver can exercise fifo capabilities by decoding CPR if implemented or from cpr_val provided from the dw8250_platform_data otherwise. dw8250_setup_port() checks for CPR or cpr_val to determine FIFO size only when Component Version (UCV) is non-zero. Bailing out early on UCV read returning zero will leave fifosize as zero and !UART_CAP_FIFO, hence prevent early return and continue to process CPR or cpr_val for the driver to utilize FIFO. Non-zero UCV implies ADDITIONAL_FEATURES=1, preventing early return will not be an overhead here.

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.
