Can the menu text spell out Spreadtrum. What SPRD means is not obvious.

Same here.

We really want to get away from per SOC serial names and use ttyS for
serial port /dev names. There's issues switching existing drivers
because this creates an ABI, so we can only have new drivers follow
this.

This can be done in probe now. Then you can use module_platform_driver().
