Hello.

No, you can't. You'll have to specify to what 8259's IRQ4 maps to on your platform.

Also, how will I make sure my board specific encm3_platform_init is
called during the arch init calls?

   Mentioning it in arch_initcall() arranges for that. :-/

I have put in an entry in the Makefile for the board specific
encm3_platform.c file -- so it is built - but when control goes to the static int __devinit serial8250_probe(struct device *dev) function in
the 8250.c it never executes the serial8250_register_port function.
I know this cus I m using the JTAG port on the board to look inside and
step through the code..

   That's strange. Although the UART declaration has a grave defect....

Here is my /arch/mips/au1000/encm3/encm3_platform.c file:

   That boilerplate is no longer applicable. :-)

0x3f8,                        //resource base

   Damn, I didn't notice: .mapbase should be changed to .iobase!

//                      .membase        = (char *)(0x50000000 +
0x3f8),         // is a pointer - ioremap cookie or NULL
                       .irq            = AU1000_GPIO_0,
                       .flags          = UPF_SHARE_IRQ, //|
UPF_IOREMAP, //UPF_BOOT_AUTOCONF | UPF_SKIP_TEST |
                       .iotype         = UPIO_PORT,
                       .regshift       = 1,
                       .uartclk        = 1843200,

                 },
                       { },
};

static struct resource encm3_via_uart_resource = {
               .start  = VIA_COM1_ADDR,
               .end    = VIA_COM1_ADDR + 0x7,
               .flags  = IORESOURCE_IO,
};

Still, you don't need to declare the resources for the 8250 devices -- the driver should handle requesting them for you -- as they're alredy specified by struct plat_serial8250_port.

static struct platform_device encm3_via_uart = {
               .name           = "serial8250",
               .id             = 1,

   I guess it should be PLAT8250_DEV_LEGACY...

               .dev                    = {
                               .platform_data  = encm3_via_uart_data,
                },

   So, you also don't need the following 2 lines:

               .num_resources  = 1,
               .resource       = &encm3_via_uart_resource,
};

static struct platform_device *encm3_platform_devices[] __initdata = {
       &encm3_via_uart,
};

int encm3_platform_init(void)
{
       printk("size of encm3 platform devices is %d
\n",ARRAY_SIZE(encm3_platform_devices));
       return platform_add_devices(encm3_platform_devices,
ARRAY_SIZE(encm3_platform_devices));

   I think it's better to call platform_device_register() for a single device...
