configs/qemu_sh4eb-r2d: restore the old sh-sci driver behaviour
As for sh4-r2d (little-endian) restore the old sh-sci driver behaviour for sh4eb-r2d. Tested with qemu_sh4eb_r2d_defconfig. Signed-off-by: Romain Naour <romain.naour@gmail.com> Cc: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@bootlin.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@bootlin.com>

+Subject: [PATCH] Revert: serial: sh-sci: increase RX FIFO trigger defaults for
+ (H)SCIF
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+This reverts commit 18e8cf159177100e69d528293f8cf6875c0b1bca (kernel)
+
+The last Qemu kernel update [1] introduced a regresion in sh4 SCIF
+serial device. Some keyboard presses are very slow to be taken into
+account, perhaps not even taken into account at all. This would
+explain why our test infrastructure doesn’t manage to login as root
+[2][3][4].
+
+git bisect reported a kernel patch from 4.11, increasing RX FIFO
+trigger defaults value for sh-sci (H)SCIF. The kernel patch itself
+looks good but the Qemu emulation is not ready to handle this new
+setting.
+
+From Qemu (2.12.0): target/sh4/README.sh4
+"Configuration of the second serial port (SCIF) is supported. FIFO
+handling infrastructure has been started but is not completed yet."
+
+In order to be able to test sh4 architecture with newer kernel,
+revert to the old behaviour.
