I'm running into this panic. I will take a closer look tomorrow.
Any ideas?

    serial: 8250: Add hardware dependency to RT288X option
    
    Kconfig option SERIAL_8250_RT288X seems to be only relevant on MIPS
    platforms, so do not present it on other architectures, unless
    build-testing.

Not sure why Greg picked this up over my objections though

Peter,

Thanks for pointing out the problem.

Greg,

My ARM-based SoC uses this hardware (Palmchip BK-3103) and it
now panics on boot.

Can we revert 8d2acdb9fc3a in time for v4.7?

Now reverted in time for 4.6, sorry about this.
