Maybe we are just lacking some pci_enable_device() on the right pci_dev.
That would mean extending xeno_16550A to deal with PCI devices. Surely
feasible, but it takes time and hardware to test - I'm lacking both.
Are you willing to play a bit with it? Then, as a prototype, you could
pick up the lookup and enabling code from the snx driver and hack it
into xeno_16550A. If that works, we could discuss how to establish
something generic for PCI-based adapters.
Note that I haven't read through that driver in details. There is a
slight risk that some more bits are different. On the other hand, the
16650 UART that seems to be on that card is advertised as
16550-compatible, thus it /should/ work...
