Thanks,

alright, if you like it...

There's no else branch anymore. Before the "if" the comment says what's
being checked, and in the if branch the comment says what's being done.

I just wanted to follow the style of the rest of the file ;-)
Since you say you've got those #defines on your todo list, I better
leave that to you.

Well, stupid reference manual. They name the UARTs 1,2,3 instead of 0,1,2.
That also leads to lines like:

_REGISTER_CLOCK("imx-uart.0", NULL, uart1_clk)

I renamed it UART0 in the comment to make it more clear.

Good idea, thank you. It's a PITA to need that >3000 pages reference manual
to read the code...

Well, OK, I like that, too.
