Subject: [PATCH V3 0/4] ARM64 LPC: legacy ISA I/O support

From: "zhichang.yuan" <yuanzhichang@...ilicon.com>

This patch supports the 16550 compatible UART attached to the Low-Pin-Count
interface mplemented on Hisilicon Hip06 SoC. The periperals attached this LPC
include UART, BT, KCS, and so on.

                  V	                  V
             -----------             ------------
             |  UART   |             |  BT(ipmi)|
             -----------             ------------

When master accesses those periperals beneath the Hip06 LPC, a specific LPC
driver is needed to make LPC host generate the standard LPC I/O cycles with
the target periperals'I/O port addresses. But on curent arm64 world, there is
no real I/O accesses. All the I/O operations through in/out pair are based on
MMIO which is not satisfied the I/O mechanism on Hip06 LPC.
To solve this issue and keep the relevant existing peripherals' driver
unchanged, this patch set redefines the in/out pair to support both the IO
operations for Hip06 LPC and the original MMIO. The way specific to Hip06 is
named as indirect-IO in this patchset.

This patch set is built based on mainline v4.8-rc6;

Changes from V2:
  - Support the PIO retrieval from the linux PIO generated by
  pci_address_to_pio. This method replace the 4K PIO reservation in V2;
  - Support the flat-tree earlycon;
  - Some revises based on Arnd's remarks;
  - Make sure the linux PIO range allocated to Hip06 LPC peripherals starts
  from non-ZERO;

Changes from V1:
  - Support the ACPI LPC device;
  - Optimize the dts LPC driver in ISA compatible mode;
  - Reserve the IO range below 4K in avoid the possible conflict with PCI host
  IO ranges;
  - Support the LPC uart and relevant earlycon;
