The added line needs to be conditional on if (port->rs485_re_gpio)
because the gpiod could be NULL and gpiod_set_value() doesn't check
for that.

Same here.

Nit: I'd probably document this as "enable RS485 receiver" because it's
already apparent from the variable type and name that it's a gpio,
making it unnecessary to repeat that in the code comment. But I guess
that's a matter of personal preference.
There's something else: You need to amend serial8250_em485_config()
to toggle the GPIO depending on whether SER_RS485_RX_DURING_TX is
set. Right now you enable the receiver by default and then disable
it when starting to transmit if half-duplex mode is selected and
likewise re-enable it when stopping to transmit. But user space
may write some stuff to the tty while in half-duplex mode, then
immediately issue a TIOCSRS485 ioctl to switch to full-duplex mode.
If the ->rs485_config callback is executed while transmitting is
still ongoing, then you'll not re-enable the receiver when transmitting
finally stops. The ->rs485_config callback is invoked under the
uart port spinlock but the lock may be briefly released and later
re-acquired by the IRQ handler if the TX FIFO is full. (Unless
I'm missing something.)
Thanks,
