This reverts commit 8d2acdb9fc.
It's causing problems, and somehow I missed that Peter didn't like it at

So revert it for now until it gets sorted out.

The bcm2835 SOC contains an auxiliary uart, which is very close
to the ns16550 with some differences.
The big difference is that the uart HW is not using an internal divider
of 16 but 8, which results in an effictive baud-rate being twice
the requested baud-rate.
This driver handles this device correctly and handles the difference in
the HW divider by scaling up the clock by a factor of 2.
The approach to write a separate (wrapper) driver instead of using a
multiplying clock and "ns16550" as compatibility in the device-tree
has been recommended by Stephen Warren.

Intel MID UART quirks require already quite a bit of code
in 8250_pci.c. On new Intel platforms where it is used, the
integrated DMA engine no longer has its own PCI device, but
is instead configured from the UART's MMIO. That means we
will have to add even more code for handling just MID UARTs.
Instead of adding that to 8250_pci.c, splitting the support
of Intel MID UART into its own driver. Handling of the
integrated DMA engine becomes much simpler this way. Own
driver will also remove the need for things like specific
set_termios hooks for every board using this UART, and
simplify the handling of it in general.

Some SoCs, including Ralink/Mediatek and Alchemy Au1xxx, have a
16550-like UART with a non-standard register layout. These are
supported by a simple mapping table in 8250_port.c Rather than
list every SoC type using this access mode in the ifdefs there,
allow selecting the SERIAL_8250_RT288X Kconfig option with any
system and default it to y for the known cases needing it. The
help text is reworded accordingly.
This change simplifies adding support for other SoCs also using
the same UART.
The name of the option is a little misleading, but not knowing
the true origin of this UART, it is as good a choice as any.

When targetting orphaned modular code in non-modular drivers, this
came up. Joachim indicated that the driver was actually meant to
be tristate but ended up bool by accident. So here we make it
tristate instead of removing the modular code that was essentially
orphaned.

This patch provides a 8250-core based UART driver for the internal OMAP
UART. The long term goal is to provide the same functionality as the
current OMAP uart driver and DMA support.
I tried to merge omap-serial code together with the 8250-core code.
There should should be hardly a noticable difference. The trigger levels
are different compared to omap-serial:
- omap serial
TX: Interrupt comes after TX FIFO has room for 16 bytes.
TX of 4096 bytes in one go results in 256 interrupts
RX: Interrupt comes after there is on byte in the FIFO.
RX of 4096 bytes results in 4096 interrupts.
- this driver
TX: Interrupt comes once the TX FIFO is empty.
TX of 4096 bytes results in 65 interrupts. That means there will
be gaps on the line while the driver reloads the FIFO.
RX: Interrupt comes once there are 48 bytes in the FIFO or less over
"longer" time frame. We have
1 / 11520 * 10^3 * 16 => 1.38… ms
1.38ms to react and purge the FIFO on 115200,8N1. Since the other
driver fired after each byte it had ~5.47ms time to react. This
_may_ cause problems if one relies on no missing bytes and has no
flow control. On the other hand we get only 85 interrupts for the
same amount of data.
It has been only tested as console UART on am335x-evm, dra7-evm and
beagle bone. I also did some longer raw-transfers to meassure the load.
The device name is ttyS based instead of ttyO. If a ttyO based node name
is required please ask udev for it. If both driver are activated (this
and omap-serial) then this serial driver will take control over the
device due to the link order
v9…v10:
- Tony noticed that omap3 won't show anything after waking up
from core off. In v9 I reworked the register restore and set
IER to 0 by accident. This went unnoticed because start_tx
usually sets ier (either due to DMA bug or due to TX-complete
IRQ).
- dropped EFR and SLEEP from capabilities. We do have both but
nobody should touch it. We already handle SLEEP ourself.
- make the private copy of the registers (like EFR) u8 instead
u32
- drop MDR1 & DL[ML] reset in restore registers. Does not look
required it is set to the required value later.
- update MDR1 & SCR only if changed.
- set MDR1 as the last thing. The errata says that we should
setup everything before MDR1 set.
- avoid div by 0 in omap_8250_get_divisor() if baud rate gets
very large (Frans Klaver fixed the same thing omap-serial)
- drop "is in early stage" from Kconfig.
v8…v9:
- less on a file seems to hang the am335x after a while. I
believe I introduce this bug a while ago since I can reproduce
this prior to v8. Fixed by redoing the omap8250_restore_regs()
v7…v8:
- redo the register write. There is now one function for that
which is used from set_termios() and runtime-resume.
- drop PORT_OMAP_16750 and move the setup to the omap file. We
have our own set termios function anyway (Heikki Krogerus)
- use MEM instead of MEM32. TRM of AM/DM37x says that 32bit
access on THR might result in data abort. We only need 32bit
access in the errata function which is before we use 8250's
read function so it doesn't matter.
v4…v7:
- change trigger levels after some tests with raw transfers.
v3…v4:
- drop RS485 support
- wire up ->throttle / ->unthrottle
v2…v3:
- wire up startup & shutdown for wakeup-irq handling.
- RS485 handling (well the core does).
v1…v2:
- added runtime PM. Could somebody could please double check
this?
- added omap_8250_set_termios()

realistically, nobody is using them anymore. They were mostly limited
to 386-sx 16MHz CPU and some 486 class machines and never more than
64MB of RAM. Even the enthusiast hobbyist community seems to have
dried up close to ten years ago, based on what you can find searching
various websites dedicated to the relatively short lived hardware.
So lets remove the support relating to CONFIG_MCA. There is no point
carrying this forward, wasting cycles doing routine maintenance on it;
wasting allyesconfig build time on validating it, wasting I/O on git
grep'ping over it, and so on."
Let's see if anybody screams. It generally has compiled, and James
Bottomley pointed out that there was a MCA extension from NCR that
allowed for up to 4GB of memory and PPro-class machines. So in *theory*
there may be users out there.
But even James (technically listed as a maintainer) doesn't actually
have a system, and while Alan Cox claims to have a machine in his cellar
that he offered to anybody who wants to take it off his hands, he didn't
argue for keeping MCA support either.
So we could bring it back. But somebody had better speak up and talk
about how they have actually been using said MCA hardware with modern
kernels for us to do that. And David already took the patch to delete
all the networking driver code (commit a5e371f61ad3: "drivers/net:
delete all code/drivers depending on CONFIG_MCA").
* 'delete-mca' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux:
MCA: delete all remaining traces of microchannel bus support.
scsi: delete the MCA specific drivers and driver code
serial: delete the MCA specific 8250 support.
arm: remove ability to select CONFIG_MCA
The support for CONFIG_MCA is being removed, since the 20
year old hardware simply isn't capable of meeting today's
software demands on CPU and memory resources.
This commit removes the MCA specific 8250 UART code.

This is V2 of the Emma Mobile 8250 platform driver.
The hardware itself has according to the data sheet
up to 64 byte FIFOs but at this point we only make
use of the 16550 compatible mode.
To support this piece of hardware the common UART
registers need to be remapped, and the access size
differences need to be handled.
The DLL and DLM registers can due to offset collision
not be remapped easily, and because of that this
driver makes use of ->dl_read() and ->dl_write()
callbacks. This in turn requires a registration
function that takes 8250-specific paramenters.
Future potential enhancements include DT support,
early platform driver console and fine grained PM.

The drivers/tty/serial dir is already getting rather busy.
Relocate the 8250 related drivers to their own subdir to
reduce the clutter.
Note that sunsu.c is not included in this move -- it is
8250-like hardware, but it does not use any of the existing
infrastructure -- and does not depend on SERIAL_8250.
