What you said is true, but looking around (see SERIAL_STM32 for example)
I'm wondering what makes MPS2 so special flake?

I was under impression that architecture/board specific guard must have
only if we have something like

#include <asm/xyz.h>

or

#include <mach/xyz.h>

which is not a case for device-tree driven MPS2 uart.

I have no idea what is practice for such things, so would be grateful to
get it known.

Cheers
Vladimir
