2012-03-09serial: remove back and forth conversions in serial_out_syncPaul Gortmaker
The two callers to serial_out_sync() have a struct port right there in scope, but then pass in a struct 8250_port which then is locally resolved back to a struct port. Delete the needless back and forth and just pass in the struct port directly. Rename the function to have "_port" in its name, so the name <--> args relationship is consistent with the other serial_in/out vs serial_port_in/out function classes.

2012-03-09serial: use serial_port_in/out vs serial_in/out in 8250Paul Gortmaker
The serial_in and serial_out helpers are expecting to operate on an 8250_port struct. These in turn go after the contained normal port struct which actually has the actual in/out accessors. But what is happening in some cases, is that a function is passed in a port struct, and it runs container_of to get the 8250_port struct, and then it uses serial_in/out helpers on that. But when you do, it goes full circle, since it jumps back inside the 8250_port to find the contained port struct (which we already knew!). So, if we are operating in a scope where we know the struct port, then use the serial_port_in/out helpers and avoid the bouncing around. If we don't have the struct port handy, and it isn't worth making a local for it, then just leave things as-is which uses the serial_in/out helpers that will resolve the 8250_port onto the struct port. Mostly, gcc figures this out on its own -- so this doesn't bring to the table any revolutionary runtime delta. However, it is somewhat misleading to always hammer away on 8250 structs, when the actual underlying property isn't at all 8250 specific -- and this change makes that clear.

2012-03-09serial: reduce number of indirections in 8250 codePaul Gortmaker
The serial_8250_port struct contains within a serial_port struct and many times one or the other, or both are in scope within functions via a passed in arg, or via container_of. However there are a lot of cases where we have access directly to the port pointer, but yet go through the parent 8250_port structure instead to get it. These should just use the port struct directly. Similarly there are cases where it makes sense (from a code cleanliness point of view) to declare a local for the port struct, so we aren't going through the parent 8250_port struct repeatedly to get to it. We get a small reduction in text size, but it appears that gcc was smart enough to internally be doing most of this already, so the readability improvement is the larger gain.

2012-03-09serial: delete useless void casts in 8250.cPaul Gortmaker
These might have worked some magic with an ancient gcc back in 1992, but "objdump --disassemble" on gcc 4.6 on x86-64 shows identical output before and after this commit. Send the casts and their hysterical rasins to the bitbucket.

2012-03-09serial: make 8250's serial_in shareable to other drivers.Paul Gortmaker
Currently 8250.c has serial_in and serial_out as shortcuts to doing the port I/O. They are implemented as macros a ways down in the file. This isn't by accident, but is implicitly required, so cpp doesn't mangle other instances of the common string "serial_in", as it exists as a field in the port struct itself. The above mangling avoidance violates the principle of least surprise, and it also prevents the shortcuts from being relocated up to the top of file, or into 8250.h -- either being a better location than the current one. Move them to 8250.h so other 8250-like drivers can also use the shortcuts, and in the process, make the conflicting names go away by using static inlines instead of macros. The object file size remains unchanged with this modification.

2012-03-09serial: delete last unused traces of pausing I/O in 8250Paul Gortmaker
This is the last traces of pausing I/O that we had back some twenty years ago. Probably was only required for 8MHz ISA cards running "on the edge" at 12MHz. Anyway it hasn't been in use for years, so lets just bury it for good.

2012-02-08m32r: relocate drivers back out of 8250 dirPaul Gortmaker
Commit 9bef3d4197379a995fa80f81950bbbf8d32e9e8b "serial: group all the 8250 related code together" inadvertently swept up the m32r driver in the move, because it had comments mentioning 8250 registers within it. However these are only there by nature of the driver being based off the 8250 source code -- the hardware itself does not actually have any relation to the original 8250 style UARTs.

2012-01-24serial: group all the 8250 related code togetherPaul Gortmaker
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.
