It's a good idea. Our PCI-to-UART device is a multifunctional
(GPIO/UART) board, I need try to split it from 8250_pci.c to
implements all functions.

IMO, It maybe wrong. If we checked only with 0x0a mask,
the 0x06 & 0x07 will be passed.

I had try with k-map to reduce from 0~11 (12~15 for don't care).
The final boolean value is a + c b(bar) for a is MSB.

I'll make the magic numbers with #define marco.

Thanks for your advices.
