serial8250_setup_port() is where it ends up using the
uninitialized serial8250_ports[index] contents. Since
port->iotype is not set to anything here, it defaults to
'0', which happens to be UPIO_PORT.

The reason it doesn't immediately crash and burn is that
this is still only setting up the structures for later
use, but I assume that trying to use console=ttyS0, or
opening /dev/ttyS0 on the uninitialized port would
then cause an oops.


All four affected platforms use ttyS0, only it is mmio based,
not io port based.

Right, so I think the problem is really the 8250_platform.c
file trying to handle all possible cases on x86 (acpi,
isapnp, legacy isa) that may define the same UARTs, but
also trying to handle non-legacy ports with their own
special cases on other architectures.

The patch below is a first idea of how we can skip the
legacy ISA case on architectures that don't define those.
If this works, we can try to come up with a better way of
doing that. Ideally all the pre-DT boardfile machines that
define their own "serial8250" platform_device (with platform_data)
should use a different identifier the x86-legacy case that
uses the platform_device (without platform_data). Similarly,
I think the riscv special ACPI port needs its own trivial
driver without all the ISA magic.

That didn't work.
