Version 2 of the Server Base System Architecture (SBSAv2) describes

SBSAv3, which describes supported access sizes in greater detail,
explicitly requires support for both 16 and 32 bit accesses to all
registers (and 8 bit accesses to some but not all). Therefore, for

compatibility, simply use 32 bit accessors for the SBSA UART.
So this eliminates the need to configure SBSA port via ACPI, correct?
Thus, Aleksey can drop his "serial: pl011: use SPCR to setup 32-bit
access"?
Yes.

Thanks,
Christopher Covington
