Hi Andy,

Thanks for the review. I've incorporatd most of your comments in a v2
that I'll send out once I've given it a spin on hardware.

Thanks for the pointer. I took a look at this. It looks like I need to
define my own accessor?

I don't think it's worth it for the one read and one write we have in
this driver.

The driver will fail to probe due to the of_property_read_u32 calls
returning an error.

We leave port.fifosize unmodified (set to zero) if there is no valid
device tree property. As the property is optional, it's not an error
if it's not present.

By setting UPF_SHARE_IRQ the core does correctly requset_irq with
IRQF_SHARED set. However, it does not store this in in port->irqflags,
so other tests in eg. serial8250_do_startup that test for IRQF_SHARED
will fail. This is a bug that we hit the other day.

Would you like a patch to the core that either tests for
UPF_SHARE_IRQ, or set IRQF_SHARED early on?

The property is optional, so if it doesn't exist we want to continue
without error.

We return EINVAL if the property is invalid, as the device tree code
will give us ENODATA or EOVERFLOW, which I don't think is informative
for a driver to return.

we continue with port.port.iotype = UPIO_MEM from above.
