Subject: [PATCH 0/7] serial: uartps: Revert dynamic port allocation

Hi,

there were several changes done in past in uartps drivers which have been
also done in uartlite driver.
Here is the thread about it
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-serial/20191203152738.GF10631@localhost/

This series reverts all patches which enabled dynamic port allocation and
returning driver to the previous state. There were added some features in
meantime which are not affected by this series.

Thanks,
Michal
