okay.

That's what I found:
8810da14: 8c82001c lw v0,28(a0)
8810da18: 00809021 move s2,a0
8810da1c: 8c510000 lw s1,0(v0)
8810da20: 00a09821 move s3,a1
8810da24: 8e220118 lw v0,280(s1)
and:
8810e224: 0e04367f jal 8810d9fc <ip22zilog_receive_chars>
8810e228: 02803021 move a2,s4
8810e22c: 0a04386e j 8810e1b8 <ip22zilog_interrupt+0xd8>
8810e230: 32020001 andi v0,s0,0x1
8810e234: 0e0437bc jal 8810def0 <ip22zilog_transmit_chars>

Well, I'm sure "MIPS assembly for Dummies" must be available
somewhere. While I keep looking please help me ;-)
