RE: hang w/ppc6xx_defconfig related to 'simple-bus' compatible

I was thinking it's CONFIG_PPC_UDBG_16550.

Do you know what the CONFIG_ option is called for the legacy driver.

The problem (in my case) is that the legacy-serial driver doesn't
accept
all of the 16550 configurations accepted by the regular ns16550
driver.
The problem is not related to simple-bus, but only became visible

when

simple-bus bindings are used because the legacy-serial driver
specifically looks for an ns16550 node contained by a simple-bus.

Most likely the hpcn_defconfig disables the legacy-serial driver
altogether.

I've tried the same .dts (w/'simple-bus') using the

If extra stuff needs to be done, it shouldn't claim to be a
