[PATCH 0/7] serial/8250: I/O accessor cleanups

[Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>]

Hi Greg,

This series of patches cleans up the part of the 8250 device
driver that is responsible for accessing the hardware registers.
The driver defines all sorts of methods to do that right now,
when it really should only support memory mapped and programmed
I/O by default, and the latter only on PC-compatible platforms
including those that have ISA/PCMCIA/PCI buses.

The series shrinks the 8250 driver by about 10% in both binary
and source code size, hopefully with no loss of functionality,
and it allows platforms to no longer define bogus inb/outb
functions when they don't provide CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT. I've
build-tested for x86 and ARM with and without HAS_IOPORT.

Hopefully Ralf can provide some feedback about the three
MIPS platforms that have code changed by this.

	Arnd
