Can we have a comment attached to a change this size. In particular one
describing why it gone from 4 to 6 ports, and why the port id twiddling.

Is there a reason you can't use the device tree port id ?

What are the regression risks for existing users expecting the pdev->id
binding ?

Sorry Alan,

The original patch was very simple, but I revisited it to fix other
issues and forgot to add the relevant comments.

Port size is changed to fix a problem - WM8505 actually had 6 uart's
defined in platform data but the vt8500_ports variable was only 4.

I have added devicetree port id support as well.

No regression risks as the entire platform is being converted to
devicetree and existing code dropped in this patchset.

Patchv4 3/9 to follow.

Regards

Tony Prisk

If you do multiple things in one driver, you should normally send multiple
patches as well, each with a description why that change is done.
It may seem silly at first to send out a one-line patch next to a 100-line
patch for the same file, but those cases are actually the ones where it's
most important.

Think of us poor git-bisect monkeys who have no idea why something broke
but can (purely mechanically) figure out which commit did it. If it's a
patch that does three unrelated things, we're kinda stuck.
