That's a great idea.  But why aren't we using it for pl011_write()?

static void pl011_write(unsigned int val, const struct uart_amba_port *uap,
	unsigned int reg)
{
	void __iomem *addr = uap->port.membase + pl011_reg_to_offset(uap, reg);

	if (uap->port.iotype == UPIO_MEM32)
		writel(val, addr);
	else
		writew(val, addr);
}
