[PATCH/RFC 0/8] UART driver support for BMIPS multiplatform kernels

[Kevin Cernekee <cernekee@gmail.com>]

Use the pxa serial driver to support BCM7xxx's UARTs; add code to allow
native-endian operation on both LE and BE systems.  Enable OF_EARLYCON
in the pxa driver.

After applying these changes I am able to build a multiplatform kernel
that boots to the prompt on BCM6328 (bcm63xx_uart) and BCM7346 (pxa).


Kevin Cernekee (7):
  serial: core: Add big_endian flag
  of: Add helper function to check MMIO register endianness
  serial: pxa: Add fifo-size and {big,native}-endian properties
  serial: pxa: Make the driver buildable for BCM7xxx set-top platforms
  serial: pxa: Update DT binding documentation
  serial: earlycon: Set uart_port->big_endian based on DT properties
  serial: pxa: Add OF_EARLYCON support
