Gratuitous change here.

Can we please flatten this conditional and get rid of the negation, and
also use `pci_err' for clear identification (`port->port.iobase' may not
even have been set to anything meaningful if this triggers)? I.e.:

/* ... */
} else if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT)) {
/* ... */
} else {
pci_err(dev, "serial port requires I/O port support\n");
return -EINVAL;
}

I'd also say "port I/O" (by analogy to "memory-mapped I/O") rather than
"I/O port", but I can imagine it might be debatable.

Can we perhaps avoid adding this helper and then tweaking code throughout
by having:

#ifdef CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_FOURPORT
#define UPF_FOURPORT ((__force upf_t) ASYNC_FOURPORT /* 1 */ )
#else
#define UPF_FOURPORT 0
#endif

in include/linux/serial_core.h instead? I can see the flag is reused by
drivers/tty/serial/sunsu.c, but from a glance over it seems rubbish to me
and such a change won't hurt the driver anyway.

Nah, i386 does have machine OUTB instructions, it has the port I/O
address space in the ISA, so these two changes make no sense to me.

Though this #ifdef should likely be converted to CONFIG_X86_32 via a
separate change.

Gratuitous change here (also breaking the reverse Christmas tree order).

Thanks for making the clean-ups we discussed.
