Stefan Seyfried 972ce08578 8250_pci: improve code comments and Kconfig help
The recent regression about NetMos 9835 Multi-I/O boards indicates
that comment pointing to the parport_serial driver could be helpful.

Paul Bolle e943f58ea8 stallion: final cleanup
Support for the Stallion multiport serial drivers was removed in v3.1.
Clean up their last references in the tree: mainly an outdated Kconfig
entry and unneeded documentation.

Jiri Slaby 9326b047e4 TTY: 8250, deprecated 8250_core.* options
They were introduced by mistake in 3.7. Let's deprecate them now. For
the reasons, see the text in Kconfig below.

John Crispin c420811f11 serial: ralink: adds support for the serial core found on ralink wisoc
The MIPS based Ralink WiSoC platform has 1 or more 8250 compatible serial cores.
To make them work we require the same quirks that are used by AU1x00.

Heikki Krogerus 9ee4b83e51 serial: 8250: Add support for dmaengine
Add support for dmaengine API. The drivers can implement the
struct uart_8250_dma member in struct uart_8250_port and
8250.c can take care of the rest.

Ralf Baechle a205a56dc2 serial: Remove RM9000 series serial driver.
Now that support for RM9000 and platforms based on it has been removed,
remove the serial driver for it as well.  It's really only been a quirk
for an almost 8250 compatible UART anyway.

Sean Young 835d844d1a 8250_pnp: do pnp probe before legacy probe
We first probe the legacy serial ports and then check pnp. If there
is a non-standard configuration then this might not work, also this
change is needed so we can blacklist Winbond CIR based on PNP ID.

For this to work the 8250_pnp driver must be merged into the 8250
module.

Linus Torvalds d5b4bb4d10 Merge branch 'delete-mca' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux
Pull the MCA deletion branch from Paul Gortmaker:
 "It was good that we could support MCA machines back in the day, but
  realistically, nobody is using them anymore.  They were mostly limited
  to 386-sx 16MHz CPU and some 486 class machines and never more than
  64MB of RAM.  Even the enthusiast hobbyist community seems to have
  dried up close to ten years ago, based on what you can find searching
  various websites dedicated to the relatively short lived hardware.

  So lets remove the support relating to CONFIG_MCA.  There is no point
  carrying this forward, wasting cycles doing routine maintenance on it;
  wasting allyesconfig build time on validating it, wasting I/O on git
  grep'ping over it, and so on."

Let's see if anybody screams.  It generally has compiled, and James
Bottomley pointed out that there was a MCA extension from NCR that
allowed for up to 4GB of memory and PPro-class machines.  So in *theory*
there may be users out there.

But even James (technically listed as a maintainer) doesn't actually
have a system, and while Alan Cox claims to have a machine in his cellar
that he offered to anybody who wants to take it off his hands, he didn't
argue for keeping MCA support either.

So we could bring it back.  But somebody had better speak up and talk
about how they have actually been using said MCA hardware with modern
kernels for us to do that.  And David already took the patch to delete
all the networking driver code (commit a5e371f61a: "drivers/net:
delete all code/drivers depending on CONFIG_MCA").

* 'delete-mca' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux:
  MCA: delete all remaining traces of microchannel bus support.
  scsi: delete the MCA specific drivers and driver code
  serial: delete the MCA specific 8250 support.
  arm: remove ability to select CONFIG_MCA

Paul Gortmaker d157be852f serial: delete the MCA specific 8250 support.
The support for CONFIG_MCA is being removed, since the 20
year old hardware simply isn't capable of meeting today's
software demands on CPU and memory resources.

This commit removes the MCA specific 8250 UART code.

Magnus Damm 22886ee968 serial8250-em: Emma Mobile UART driver V2
This is V2 of the Emma Mobile 8250 platform driver.

The hardware itself has according to the data sheet
up to 64 byte FIFOs but at this point we only make
use of the 16550 compatible mode.

To support this piece of hardware the common UART
registers need to be remapped, and the access size
differences need to be handled.

The DLL and DLM registers can due to offset collision
not be remapped easily, and because of that this
driver makes use of ->dl_read() and ->dl_write()
callbacks. This in turn requires a registration
function that takes 8250-specific paramenters.

Future potential enhancements include DT support,
early platform driver console and fine grained PM.

Paul Gortmaker 9bef3d4197 serial: group all the 8250 related code together
The drivers/tty/serial dir is already getting rather busy.
Relocate the 8250 related drivers to their own subdir to
reduce the clutter.

Note that sunsu.c is not included in this move -- it is
8250-like hardware, but it does not use any of the existing
infrastructure -- and does not depend on SERIAL_8250.
