That fails my sanity filters, sorry. iotype takes these values, and
these values only:
#define UPIO_PORT (SERIAL_IO_PORT) /* 8b I/O port access */#define UPIO_HUB6 (SERIAL_IO_HUB6) /* Hub6 ISA card */
#define UPIO_MEM (SERIAL_IO_MEM) /* 8b MMIO access */
#define UPIO_MEM32 (SERIAL_IO_MEM32) /* 32b little endian */
#define UPIO_AU (SERIAL_IO_AU) /* Au1x00 and RT288x type IO */
#define UPIO_TSI (SERIAL_IO_TSI) /* Tsi108/109 type IO */#define UPIO_MEM32BE (SERIAL_IO_MEM32BE) /* 32b big endian */
These are exposed to userspace, and they have meaning.
We _could_ augment include/uapi/linux/serial.h and
include/linux/serial_core.h to add a 16-bit LE MMIO accessor identifier,
but hacking it by deciding to re-use SERIAL_IO_PORT for something it
isn't is abhorrent to me.
