Nearly identical functions are used in amiserial and cyclades.
Disabled in amiserial, enabled in cyclades.

It might be better to add it to some file like
drivers/tty/debug_utils.h

It'd probably be better to change:

static inline int serial_paranoia_check(struct serial_state *info,
					char *name, const char *routine)
{
#ifdef SERIAL_PARANOIA_CHECK
	static const char *badmagic =
		"Warning: bad magic number for serial struct (%s) in %s\n";
	static const char *badinfo =
		"Warning: null async_struct for (%s) in %s\n";

	if (!info) {
		printk(badinfo, name, routine);
		return 1;
	}
	if (info->magic != SERIAL_MAGIC) {
		printk(badmagic, name, routine);
		return 1;
	}
#endif
	return 0;
}

to something like:

static inline int serial_paranoia_check(struct serial_state *info, char *name)
{
#ifdef SERIAL_PARANOIA_CHECK
	if (!info) {
		pr_warn("async_struct for (%s) is NULL in %pf\n",
			name, __builtin_return_address(0));
		return 1;
	}
	if (info->magic != SERIAL_MAGIC) {
		pr_warn("serial struct (%s) has bad magic number in %pf\n",
			name, __builtin_return_address(0));
		return 1;
	}
#endif
	return 0;
}

and remove all the function names from the callers.
