[PATCH v2] serial: 8250: handle ixp4xx register endianness correctly

[Linus Walleij <linusw@kernel.org>]

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

Unlike modern SoCs that just work in both big-endian and little-endian
mode using the readl()/writel() or readb()/writeb() accessors, the
internal registers on ixp4xx behave like native-endian 32-bit registers
in both modes, which requires adjusting the register address
when using 8-bit access.

The existing dts files are written for big-endian kernels and 8-bit
access, which does not work with little-endian kernels.

Add a quirk that makes the 8250 OF driver:

1. Mask off any hardcoded offset.
2. Add the += 3 offset if and only if we are running on big endian.

This should work in all combinations of big-endian and little-endian
kernels with either variant of the DTS file.

Changes in v2:
- Use PTR_ALIGN_DOWN(*,4) instead of the custom &= 3, which also
  works with a pointer which is an unsigned char *
- Fix to the earlycon code to do the same thing as the main
  serial port.
- Link to v1: https://patch.msgid.link/20260709-ixp4xx-serial-hackfix-v1-1-cd1c29d02183@kernel.org
