Yeah it probably should unless there are real dependencies
on LEON specific functions, which I don't think this serial
driver does.

Using "OF" as the dependency would be great for me because
then I'd be able to test the build on this even on sparc64.
:-)

So Kristoffer, please make this change and resubmit your patch.
The driver looks fine to me otherwise.

Thanks!
