Ok, will do so.

I've tested my changes with the steps as follows, it did not break.

1. Clone the Linux repo, check out the source and work on my project.
2. Compile the kernel source with "make j4".
3. Build the kernel modules with "make modules_install".
4. Install the kernel with "make install".
5. Reboot into the newly built kernel.
6. The kernel worked well and able to fit my needs.

Noted that my source is checked out from the latest Linux kernel 5.2.0-rc6.

Also, I checked my patch using checkpatch.pl, it did not show any errors and 
warnings too.

May I know what do you mean by breaking the build?

NI8430 device is using standard 16550 UART chip so I standardize all the 16550 
UART related #defines to UART chip specific name rather than device specific.

Ok, will change to this style.

Also, will change this.

I moved the indentation because it complained this line exceeded 80 characters 
when I check the patch. I will change back to original indentation.

Ok, will update this.

This is more like a fail safe approach, it should never happen, will remove this line.

Will do so.
