Presumably too late for 3.3, but I figured I'd send the 8250 tidy up
for review while the discussion was still fresh in everyone's mind.
Note that this patch is based on Greg's tty-next branch in:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty.git
since we need to move the 8250_fsl driver as well, which at the moment
only exists there. Tested with serial console on x86-32.
Paul.

Subject: [PATCH] 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.

-# The new 8250/16550 serial drivers
-config SERIAL_8250
- tristate "8250/16550 and compatible serial support"
- select SERIAL_CORE
- ---help---
- This selects whether you want to include the driver for the standard
- serial ports. The standard answer is Y. People who might say N
- here are those that are setting up dedicated Ethernet WWW/FTP
- servers, or users that have one of the various bus mice instead of a
- serial mouse and don't intend to use their machine's standard serial
- port for anything. (Note that the Cyclades and Stallion multi
- serial port drivers do not need this driver built in for them to
- work.)
-
- To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
- module will be called 8250.
- [WARNING: Do not compile this driver as a module if you are using
- non-standard serial ports, since the configuration information will
- be lost when the driver is unloaded. This limitation may be lifted
- in the future.]
-
- BTW1: If you have a mouseman serial mouse which is not recognized by
- the X window system, try running gpm first.
-
- BTW2: If you intend to use a software modem (also called Winmodem)
- under Linux, forget it. These modems are crippled and require
- proprietary drivers which are only available under Windows.
-
- Most people will say Y or M here, so that they can use serial mice,
- modems and similar devices connecting to the standard serial ports.
-
-config SERIAL_8250_CONSOLE
- bool "Console on 8250/16550 and compatible serial port"
- depends on SERIAL_8250=y
- select SERIAL_CORE_CONSOLE
- ---help---
- If you say Y here, it will be possible to use a serial port as the
- system console (the system console is the device which receives all
- kernel messages and warnings and which allows logins in single user
- mode). This could be useful if some terminal or printer is connected
- to that serial port.
-
- Even if you say Y here, the currently visible virtual console
- (/dev/tty0) will still be used as the system console by default, but
- you can alter that using a kernel command line option such as
- "console=ttyS1". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
- your boot loader (grub or lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options
- to the kernel at boot time.)
-
- If you don't have a VGA card installed and you say Y here, the
- kernel will automatically use the first serial line, /dev/ttyS0, as
- system console.
-
- You can set that using a kernel command line option such as
- "console=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8"
- "console=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8".
- and it will switch to normal serial console when the corresponding
- port is ready.
- "earlycon=uart8250,io,0x3f8,9600n8"
- "earlycon=uart8250,mmio,0xff5e0000,115200n8".
- it will not only setup early console.
-
- If unsure, say N.

- ---help---
- Say Y here to enable support for 16-bit PCMCIA serial devices,
- including serial port cards, modems, and the modem functions of
- multi-function Ethernet/modem cards. (PCMCIA- or PC-cards are
- credit-card size devices often used with laptops.)
-
- To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
- module will be called serial_cs.
-
- If unsure, say N.
-
-config SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS
- int "Maximum number of 8250/16550 serial ports"
- depends on SERIAL_8250
- default "4"
- help
- Set this to the number of serial ports you want the driver
- to support. This includes any ports discovered via ACPI or
- PCI enumeration and any ports that may be added at run-time
- via hot-plug, or any ISA multi-port serial cards.

-
-config SERIAL_8250_EXTENDED
- bool "Extended 8250/16550 serial driver options"
- depends on SERIAL_8250
- help
- If you wish to use any non-standard features of the standard "dumb"
- driver, say Y here. This includes HUB6 support, shared serial
- interrupts, special multiport support, support for more than the
- four COM 1/2/3/4 boards, etc.
-
- Note that the answer to this question won't directly affect the
- kernel: saying N will just cause the configurator to skip all
- the questions about serial driver options. If unsure, say N.
-
-config SERIAL_8250_MANY_PORTS
- bool "Support more than 4 legacy serial ports"
- depends on SERIAL_8250_EXTENDED && !IA64
- help
- Say Y here if you have dumb serial boards other than the four
- standard COM 1/2/3/4 ports. This may happen if you have an AST
- FourPort, Accent Async, Boca (read the Boca mini-HOWTO, available
- from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>), or other custom
- serial port hardware which acts similar to standard serial port
- hardware. If you only use the standard COM 1/2/3/4 ports, you can
- say N here to save some memory. You can also say Y if you have an
- "intelligent" multiport card such as Cyclades, Digiboards, etc.

- depends on SERIAL_8250_EXTENDED

- Say Y here if you want the kernel to try to guess which IRQ
- to use for your serial port.
