There's no functional difference, but here it's at least possible
to add support for exar, synopsys, ti omap, intel, etc. based on either
port type or a function vector initialized by the sub-driver.

Huh? That's just ridiculous.

This is required anyway. I'm not the one that decided it would be
cute to have "uart" and "uart8250" mean the same thing.

On what planet is 27 loc across 4 source files cleaner than
6 loc that might be reducible to 2?
