I did follow that email thread a while back about the provenance of this register layout. I'd rather not go back through the source and rename the symbols. Afaict, the Au1x00 landed first in source and then the RT288x afterwards. So I'd like to stick with those. I named the register layout on the basis of the original usage which started in the 8250 port driver with the au_* accessor functions. The earlycon functions I named that way because that's the name of the earlycon (which originates from the DT compatible key which can't be changed). I do want people to be able to find other relevant code by grepping these names, so I was thinking of adding a follow-on patch that uses the AU1x00_ register names in the 8250 port driver LUT.
