that logic is correct.

It's not about switching to a slighly higher baudrate of B460800 but
rather to
switch to the highest baudrate that can sensibly be used on the phone uart
which
is the non-standard 406250. Some USB/Serial converter chips allow to
select almost
any baudrate you want out of the box, but CP210x doesn't. If you have a
CP210x you
modify the eeprom in the serial adapter so that when Linux requests the
"Standard"
460k, it actually uses the odd 406k.

In src/target/firmware/calypso/uart.c there's the uint16_t divider[] table
of baudrate dividers, and the two highest speeds supported by the calypso
chipset are 406,250 or 812,500 bits per second.
