Re: [PATCH v4] drivers/char: rename arm-uart.c to uart-init.c
Hi Oleksii,

Rename the file containing uart_init() to enable reuse across other
architectures that utilize device trees or SPCR tables to locate UART
information.
After locating UART data, {acpi}_device_init() is called to initialize
the UART.
arm_uart_init() is renamed to uart_init() to be reused by other
architectures.
A new configuration option, CONFIG_GENERIC_UART_INIT, is introduced,
currently available only for Arm. Enabling CONFIG_UART_INIT on additional
architectures will require additional functionality, such as device tree
mapping and unflattening, etc.
arm-uart.c is removed from "ARM (W/ VIRTUALIZATION EXTENSIONS) ARCHITECTURE"
section in the MAINTAINERS file, as it is no longer Arm-specific and can
now be maintained by maintainers of other architectures.
Use GENERIC_UART_INIT for CONFIG_ARM by adding `select GENERIC_UART_INIT`
to CONFIG_ARM.
