Hello I am using 8250 console and wish to use the 8250_early as well. I encounter endianess problem while using this driver for mmio32. The problem is since my serial peripheral like my cpu is in BIG endian. Driver through serial_in/serial_out uses readl/writel from asm-generic/io.h. These macros assume peripheral is always in LITTLE endian. Therefore all data needs a swab. In 8250 driver I can register replacement for default serial_in/serial_out and workaround the problem. In 8250_early I had no choice but to change code with additional swab to workaround the problem. I am looking for proper solution so it can be added to upstream. I got several ideas if interest arise.
