John Linn 2f0b45f846 [POWERPC] Xilinx: boot support for Xilinx uart 16550.
The Xilinx 16550 uart core is not a standard 16550 because it uses
word-based addressing rather than byte-based adressing. With
additional properties it is compatible with the open firmware
'ns16550' compatible binding.

This code updates the ns16550 driver to use the reg-offset property
so that the Xilinx UART 16550 can be used with it. The reg-shift
was already being handled.

Laurent Pinchart da0a5f0c65 [POWERPC] Add bootwrapper function to get virtual reg from the device tree.
This patch adds a new generic device tree processing function that retrieves
virtual reg addresses from the device tree to the bootwrapper code. It also
updates the bootwrapper code to use the new function.

dt_get_virtual_reg() retrieves the virtual reg addresses from the
"virtual-reg" property. If the property can't be found, it uses the "reg"
property and walks the tree to translate it to absolute addresses.

Scott Wood 6e1af384f1 [POWERPC] bootwrapper: Add dt_xlate_reg(), and use it to find serial registers.
dt_xlate_reg() uses the ranges properties of a node's parentage to find
the absolute physical address of the node's registers.

The ns16550 driver uses this when no virtual-reg property is found.

Mark A. Greer 0c176fa80f [POWERPC] Add non-OF serial console support
Add serial console support for non-OF systems.  There is a generic serial
console layer which calls a serial console driver.  Included is the serial
console driver for the ns16550 class of uarts.  Necessary support routines
are added as well.
