Some SoCs use a Palmchip BK-310x UART which is mostly 16550 compatible
but with a different register layout.
... because UART register layout is where we really need innovation. ;)

While this UART has previously
only been supported in MIPS based chips (Alchemy, Ralink), the ARM based
SMP87xx series from Sigma Designs also uses it.

This patch allows the debug console to work with this type of UART.

It appears this was previously acked by Arnd also?

Peter, this is the patch I've been using on Tango for earlyprintk support.
arm-soc, this is just the Nov 8 patch with my Signed-off-by tag.

minor nit: We're trying (not always with great success) to keep various
parts of this file sorted alphanumerically.  Can you please insert the
new entries accordingly?
It has to precede the regular 8250 entry so as to take precedence over
that.
<confused> Are you all talking about these 2 lines:

	default "debug/palmchip.S" if DEBUG_UART_8250_PALMCHIP
	default "debug/8250.S" if DEBUG_LL_UART_8250 || DEBUG_UART_8250

default "debug/palmchip.S" is supposed to come before default "debug/8250.S" ?

Because, in my config, there is no DEBUG_LL_UART_8250 to be seen, and
# CONFIG_DEBUG_UART_8250 is not set

So I don't see how the order might cause a problem in that case?

Regards.
