Here is my second attempt at the serial driver patch for the
PMC-Sierra MSP71xx device.
There are three different fixes:
1. Fix for THRE errata
- I verified the UART_BUG_TXEN fix does not help with this erratum.
- I left our current fix in until I get our platform booting on
2.6.20-rc4 to try the mm tree "8250-uart-backup-timer.patch".
Feel free to ignore for now.
2. Fix for Busy Detect on LCR write
- Moved to new UPIO_DWAPB iotype. Because the new type is a memory
mapped device and there are several tests for UPIO_MEM, this involved
updating serial_core.c and 8250_early.c in addition to 8250.c.
- I tried implementing this totally in serial_in as suggested, but
it can't be done because of bit overlap between UART_IIR_NO_INT and
UART_IIR_BUSY. Also there is no way to set the interrupt "handled = 1"
from serial_in.
3. Workaround for interrupt/data concurrency issue
- Moved to new UPIO_DWAPB iotype.

From your 8250_eraly.c changes I can conclude regshift == 1 (it doesn't
currently support other cases). So, serial_pot() doesn't need save_offset. :-)

Needless change. My patch that fixes this function is in Linus' tree since
September, not sure why you don't have it:

Erm, 'private' or 'data' would've sounded better in the kernel context,
IMHO... :-)

I'd suggest keeping this with other UART_IIR_* #defines, separated by the
