+//! LPUART Ring Buffer DMA example for MCXA276.
+//!
+//! This example demonstrates using the high-level `LpuartRxDma::setup_ring_buffer()`
+//! API for continuous circular DMA reception from a UART peripheral.
+//!
+//! # Features demonstrated:
+//! - `LpuartRxDma::setup_ring_buffer()` for continuous peripheral-to-memory DMA
+//! - `RingBuffer` for async reading of received data
+//! - Handling of potential overrun conditions
+//! - Half-transfer and complete-transfer interrupts for timely wakeups
+//!
+//! # How it works:
+//! 1. Create an `LpuartRxDma` driver with a DMA channel
+//! 2. Call `setup_ring_buffer()` which handles all low-level DMA configuration
+//! 3. Application asynchronously reads data as it arrives via `ring_buf.read()`
+//! 4. Both half-transfer and complete-transfer interrupts wake the reader
