There were some ifdefs added to the 8250 drivers in Arnd's original
patch [0], but it does not seem included here.
Niklas, what happened to the 8250 and the other driver changes?
[0]

That driver would prob not be used on systems which does not support
PIO, and so could have a HAS_IOPORT dependency. But it is not strictly
necessary.
Anyway, it would be good to have an idea of how much ifdeffery is
required in drivers.
Thanks,
