Hi Andy,
Thanks for the review. Just a few doubts below.

I thought about pci_iounmap but I saw that most of the code in
8250_pci.c is using iounmap, so i went in favor of the majority.
Will change it.

Main doubt here. If I do not give the module_init() and module_exit()
then what entry do i keep in the Kconfig? In this v3, it is kept as
tristate. Should that be bool then?
