Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH 1/2] x86: add a user configurable Kconfig option for the NS16550 UART



Hello Derek,

Allows for the conditional inclusion of NS16550 UART driver on the x86 platform
rather than having it always enabled.

The default configuration for the HAS_NS16550 option remains 'y' on x86, so the
behavior out of the box remains unchanged.  The addition of the option allows
advanced users to enable/disable the inclusion of the NS16550 UART driver.

          This selects the 16550-series UART support. For most systems, say Y.

With this change, NS166550 is now disabled by default on ARM. This was not the case before.

Please make sure to retain the previous behavior for ARM platforms.
