For some reason we never understood, ZTE designers chose to use a
different offset on Data and Flag register, which make it difficult to
reuse pl01x.S.

/* Data read or written from the interface. */
#define UART01x_DR	0x00
#define ZX_UART01x_DR	0x04

/* Flag register (Read only). */
#define ZX_UART01x_FR	0x14
#define UART01x_FR	0x18

We chose to duplicate the file to avoid churning generic pl01x.S.  Would
something like below be acceptable?  Or any better idea?
