Bummer. Maybe that firmware can use a different DBG2 port designation to
indicate it's a DesignWare 8250 (or generically 32-bit mmio).

While that's true specifically for DesignWare 8250 + ACPI, that's not
true for _all_ 8250 + ACPI.

I find that statement hard to believe. I know for a fact ia64 servers didn't,
so the assertion that SPCR + 16550 + MMIO automatically means 32-bit data width
seems unlikely.
In fact, I suspect the opposite is true; that before these arm64 designs,
SPCR + 16550 + MMIO automatically meant 8-bit data width, which is why it's
unspecified in the SPCR table.
