David,

Sorry haven't noticed you submit once working on series.

Due to broken address translation, I used Kenneth work as a base. I'd
appreciate if you take a look/comment (CPM_UART: Fixed odd address
translations). Mostly it did the same as your patch/Kenneth work (so I
think it will be fair enough to put your both signed-off lines in there
as well - just let me know you do not object).

Can you please rebase it with my series applied? I'll submit it as incremental to my series then.
I am maintaining this part, and trying to make it better :).

All ioport things are board-specific and should reside in BSP code (I'm pretty sure nobody will object...) - the BSP patch has examples how to do that. Though the legacy behavior it retaining,
I claim it as "no longer supported " and encourage board port owners to do minor changes in board-specific code and have cpm_uart operate on platform-device basis.
