Subject: [PATCH 2/3] serial: 8250_aspeed_vuart: initialize vuart->port in aspeed_vuart_probe()

Previously this had only been initialized if we hit the throttling path
in aspeed_vuart_handle_irq(); moving it to the probe function is a
slight consistency improvement and avoids redundant reinitialization in
the interrupt handler. It also serves as preparation for converting the
driver's I/O accesses to use port->port.membase instead of its own
vuart->regs.

The documentation of serial8250_get_port() is somewhat concerning wrt
the use:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_core.c?h=v5.13-rc1#n399

However, given the existing behaviour it shouldn't be problematic?

Hmm, good point -- though despite that comment it looks like there is
some existing code using it outside of suspend/resume callbacks (in
8250_pci.c and 8250_pnp.c). I'm not certain if those would necessarily
be considered good precedent to follow for this, but I don't see any
obvious better way of getting hold of the corresponding uart_8250_port
(or its port.membase).

I did receive a notification that Greg had added this series to his
tty-testing branch; not sure if that means he thinks it's OK or if it
just kind of slipped by unnoticed though.

"existing behaviour" referring to what here?

Yeah, I just highlighted it in case anyone else wanted to weigh in.

Essentially I'm just deferring to Greg. If he's picked them up, great!

Well, we were poking at the registers through vuart->regs anyway.

So I don't think what you've done is any less correct.
