omap_uart_phys, omap_uart_virt and omap_uart_lsr reside in .data section
and it's right implementation. But because of this, we cannot enable
CONFIG_DEBUG_UNCOMPRESS. LL_DEBUG and DEBUG_UNCOMPRESS are very useful tools
for debugging early boot stage when something goes wrong if you don't have
any hardware based debugging tools like a JTAG debugger.
 This patch is to put the variables into .text section instead only when the
DEBUG_LL_INCLUDE file is included in the kernel decompressor, which is only
when ZIMAGE is defined.
 This patch does not change anything when DEBUG_LL_INCLUDE is included in
the other kernel parts like arch/arm/kernel/*

So I converted all these to use the 8250 debug_ll yesterday
which should solve the DEBUG_UNCOMPRESS issue for you and
allows us to remove this file. Will post the series shortly
for testing with you in Cc after I've done a bit more testing
here.

Regards,

Tony

It sounds good.
patch 01 is dropped though, are you using the second patch ?
"[PATCH 2/2] arm:omap2+: drop dependence on DEBUG_OMAP2PLUS_UART for
DEBUG_UNCOMPRESS"

Thank you.

I folded it into the patch removing all users of DEBUG_OMAP2PLUS_UART
as that seems to make most sense here.
