Three of the four entries of imx_uart_devdata[] use .uts_reg = IMX21_UTS. The difference in the .devtype member isn't relevant, the only thing that matters is if is equal to IMX1_UART. So use an entry with .devtype = IMX21_UART on all platforms but i.MX1. There is no need to have the dev types in an array, so split them up in two separate variables. The fsl,imx53-uart devinfo can go away because in the binding and also the dts files all fsl,imx53-uart devices also are compatible to fsl,imx21-uart. That's not the case for fsl,imx6q-uart (which is a bit strange IMHO), so the fsl,imx6q-uart must stay around. Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Hello, this diff's idea appeared already in reply to a patch by Tom Rix that became commit 7553574900f37847a25c4d572b13c512811604ed. I just found the discussion[1] while cleaning up my inbox. This is a slightly improved version.
