If CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS is smaller than the array size in
asm/serial.h, we trampled on memory which wasn't ours. Take our
big boots away by limiting the number of ports initialised to the
smaller of ...NR_UARTS and the array size.

Remove legacy ISA serial ports for Accent, Boca, Fourport, Hub6 and MCA
from the architecture specific serial.h include.
The only ports which remain in asm-*/serial.h are the platform specific
entries. These should really be converted by platform maintainers to
use a platform device, such as can be found in
arch/arm/mach-footbridge/isa.c

Disable the transmitter whenever we want to prevent characters
being transmitted by flow control. However, if we run out of
characters to send and want to only disable the TX interrupt,
allow that scenario.

This patch changes the way serial ports are locked when getting modem
status. This change is necessary because we will need to atomically
read the modem status and take action depending on the CTS status.

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.)

The Mobility 16550A serial ports don't behave the same as standard
16550A ports, and need a helping hand to get them going once the
transmitter has drained and been disabled.

For some 8250 port types, we used to check the type of the port, and
then determine whether the chip revision means the device is buggy.
Instead, introduce a bit array, and set the appropriate bit(s) when
we discover a buggy device.

with high-speed mode enabled, we switch it to high-speed mode so that
baud_base becomes 921600. However, we also need to multiply the baud
divisor by 8 at the same time, in case it's already in use as a console.

Add uart_insert_char(), which handles inserting characters into the
flip buffer. This helper function handles the correct semantics
for handling overrun in addition to inserting normal characters.

Another large rollup of various patches from Adrian which make things static

Fix the formatting of some comments in 8250.c, and add a note that the
register_serial / unregister_serial shouldn't be used in new code.
We do this here in preference to adding to linux/serial.h, since that is used
by a number of non-8250 drivers which pretend to be 8250. It is not known
whether it would be appropriate to do so.

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!
