[En-Nut-Discussion] UART1 on ethernut3

[Ole Reinhardt]

Hello Petri,

The most important reason is that the at91usart driver is independent
from the board hardware layout. It is usable for the AT91SAM7xxx and the
AT91SAM9xxx as well. So you don't wand board specific code in the
driver.

Regards,

Ole Reinhardt
