serial_8250.h

18a8bd949d serial: convert early_uart to earlycon for 8250
Beacuse SERIAL_PORT_DFNS is removed from include/asm-i386/serial.h and
include/asm-x86_64/serial.h.  the serial8250_ports need to be probed late in
serial initializing stage.  the console_init=>serial8250_console_init=>
register_console=>serial8250_console_setup will return -ENDEV, and console
ttyS0 can not be enabled at that time.  need to wait till uart_add_one_port in
drivers/serial/serial_core.c to call register_console to get console ttyS0.
that is too late.

Make early_uart to use early_param, so uart console can be used earlier.  Make
it to be bootconsole with CON_BOOT flag, so can use console handover feature.
and it will switch to corresponding normal serial console automatically.

new command line will be:
	console=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8
	console=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8
or
	earlycon=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8
	earlycon=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8

it will print in very early stage:
	Early serial console at I/O port 0x3f8 (options '9600n8')
	console [uart0] enabled
later for console it will print:
	console handover: boot [uart0] -> real [ttyS0]

e0980dafa3 [PATCH] Exar quad port serial
This is on our "Envoy" boxes which we have, according to the documentation, an
"Exar ST16C554/554D Quad UART with 16-byte Fifo's".  The box also has two
other "on-board" serial ports and a modem chip.

The two on-board serial UARTs were being detected along with the first two
Exar UARTs.  The last two Exar UARTs were not showing up and neither was the
modem.

This patch was the only way I could the kernel to see beyond the standard four
serial ports and get all four of the Exar UARTs to show up.

104c7b03ea [ARM] 3383/3: ixp2000: ixdp2x01 platform serial conversion
Patch from Lennert Buytenhek

Add a PLAT8250_DEV_PLATFORM2, and convert the two ixdp2x01 CPLD serial
ports to use platform serial devices with ids PLAT8250_DEV_PLATFORM[12].
(The on-chip xscale UART is PLAT8250_DEV_PLATFORM, id #0.)

0077d45e46 [SERIAL] Make uart_port flags a bitwise type
Same reasoning as commit 747c8a5594
but this time we're making uart_port flags a bitwise type - not
all of these flags correspond with the old ASYNC_ flags, so there
is the possibility for bugs if the wrong ASYNC_* constants are
used.  Always use UPF_* constants for uart_port->flags.

21c614a789 [SERIAL] Support Au1x00 8250 UARTs using the generic 8250 driver.
The offsets of the registers are in a different place, and
some parts cannot handle a full set of modem control signals.

6df29debb7 [SERIAL] Use an enum for serial8250 platform device IDs
Rather than hard-coding the platform device IDs, enumerate them.
We don't particularly care about the actual ID we get, just as
long as they're unique.

ec9f47cd6a [PATCH] Serial: Split 8250 port table
Add separate files for the different 8250 ISA-based serial boards.

Looking across all the various architectures, it seems reasonable that
we can key the availability of the configuration options for these
beasts to the bus-related symbols (iow, CONFIG_ISA).  We also standardise
the base baud/uart clock rate for these boards - I'm sure that isn't
architecture specific, but is solely dependent on the crystal fitted
on the board (which should be the same no matter what type of machine
its fitted into.)

1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
