amba pl011 non amba/sbsa driver

Hi.
Our upcoming SOC is using pl011 ip, but we have a different NOC than
AMBA and we don't want to use the SBSA, as it provides limited
functionality in the UART.

My question is should we develop a new driver or add more
functionality to the current driver.
The pl011 driver is a bit messy, and the functionality we actually
need is actually supported in the current driver, but I can't
differentiate my HW using AMBA id.

If a change will be more suitable in the driver, my plan is to add
support for an oe_device_id table  along with an amba_device_id table
for generic amba pl011 drivers.
Does this make sense ?

Thanks,
Ramon.
