I am separating them out now as I have incorporated changes as suggested by Alan Cox, and these are ready for review now. Changes from previous version: * I/O functions now called serial_{in,out}. * UART_BUG_OCTEON_IIR workaround moved to OCTEON serial_in function and out of this patch set. Since these are the only non-mips specific patches required for OCTEON cpu support, it is necessary to get these Signed-off-by before the full OCTEON patch set can proceed. Also since serial is lacking active maintainers, I am sending directly to akpm and Alan in hopes that one or more of them will review the patches. Five patches to follow. David Daney (5): 8250: Don't clobber spinlocks. 8250: Serial driver changes to support future Cavium OCTEON serial patches. Serial: Allow port type to be specified when calling serial8250_register_port. 8250: Allow port type to specify bugs that are not probed for. Serial: UART driver changes for Cavium OCTEON. drivers/serial/8250.c | 230 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------- drivers/serial/8250.h | 2 + drivers/serial/serial_core.c | 7 +- include/linux/serial_8250.h | 3 + include/linux/serial_core.h | 7 +- 5 files changed, 185 insertions(+), 64 deletions(-)
