Can you use the driver on CPUs without this particular bug when it's built
in Soft-UART mode?

Try to reduce the number of #ifdefs in your code. In particular, you should
not do conditional #includes and #defines, as they often lead to subtle bugs.

The structure is perfectly packed even without your __attribute__ ((packed)),
so you should leave out the attribute in order to get more efficient code
accessing it.

Do you really need the debugging function like this in the code?
Usually they are rather pointless once the code works, and will
suffer from bitrot because nobody enables the code.

again, the #ifdef should be left out if it can.

I'm guessing that you don't really mean dma_addr_t here, but rather
phys_addr_t, which is something different.

same here.
