Subject: [PATCH 4/6] ce4100: Add errata fixes for UART on CE4100

From: Dirk Brandewie <dirk.brandewie@...il.com>

This patch enables the UART on the CE4100.  The UART has a couple of
issues that need to be worked around.  First the UART is mostly PC
compatible except that it is clocked eight times faster than a
standard PC so the default configuration provided in
arch/x86/include/asm/serial.h needs to be overridden. Second the TX
interrupt may not be set correctly all the time. Lastly accessing the
UART via I/O space for early_prink() hangs the chip when the IOAPIC is
enabled.

A custom mem_serial_in() is provided to work around the TX interrupt
issue. The configuration issues are dealt with in the call back
registered with the 8250 driver via serial8250_set_isa_configurator()
