Ick, I don't like this, you are doing almost the same thing that
univ8250_console_match does, yet you have to know the internals of the
acpi_table_spcr structure, which is insane (again, do you want to do
this for every firmware type?)
Isn't this something that resources are supposed to handle for us? What
happened to getting this type of information from the firmware in a
non-firmware-specific way to pass to the drivers? Please work on that
instead, then you don't have to modify each and every single driver you
want to work with your system, they will all "just work" automagically.
Please redo this series, as it is, I don't like it at all.
thanks,
greg k-h
