One limitation is currently the lack of an IAP140 clk driver. Patch 4/4 works around that for UART0 with a fixed-clock.The PXA1928 clock driver should be close to what you need. They are supposed to be very similar.Where do you see that in mainline? Not in drivers/clk/pxa/ at least. I'm certain the acorn-marvell tree has a PXA1908 clk driver somewhere, too, I just haven't ported it yet.
drivers/clk/mmp/clk-of-pxa1928.c I ported/rewrote that from Marvell's 3.10 vendor tree.

AFAICT, it was separate to add DMA support, but now the base 8250 driver supports DMA. The base 8250 driver works with the PXA1928 and should also work with the PXA1908.Do you personally have one? I didn't spot a pxa1928 DT in mainline.
Yes. It never got released and got abandoned. I got several drivers cleaned up to support it and the clock code in before that happened. I had a in-progress DRM driver too. I was debugging why some monitors worked and others didn't when I stopped working on it. I think the board you are working on has the same ADV7533? It's all up on my Linaro tree: https://git.linaro.org/people/rob.herring/linux.git
So, by my reading both 8250_of.c and 8250_pxa.c list "mrvl,mmp-uart" for the platform driver. Is that really intentional?
Humm, well I added support in commit 6ad991b699b4e to of_serial.c and then it looks like it got copied to 8250_pxa.c recently. Not sure if that really made sense or not. We should remove one of them. 8250_pxa.c looks fairly pointless to me. Turning a clock on/off in resume/suspend is already supported by 8250_of.c (which doesn't have the bug of turning off the console's clock in suspend). The only other thing is the errata in serial_pxa_dl_write.
What the early_pxa earlycon does is set the register shift and then reuse the 8250 core - that looks perfectly valid to me. Are you possibly mixing that up with the non-8250 pxa serial driver that I am already suppressing one patch earlier?
The earlycon core already sets up reg-shift for you. I added earlycon support in commit a4c639b04f301d. I used "ns16650a" as a fallback compatible string, so there's not an explicit PXA/MMP compatible string there.
While at it, are you aware that we have two drivers, one pxa and one mmp, that bind to "marvell,pdma-1.0"? That seemed wrong to me, too.
Yeah, it was drivers/tty/serial/pxa.c that I was thinking of. I was incorrectly thinking 8250_pxa.c was that one. Rob
