OK, will rename SCI_PORT_RSCI->RSCI_PORT_SCIF16 since it is only used in T2H.

If you agree, I am planning to change the enum values as below, when RSCI_PORT_SC{I,IF32}
is added

RSCI_PORT_SCI = BIT(7) | 0,
RSCI_PORT_SCIF16 = BIT(7) | 1,
RSCI_PORT_SCIF32 = BIT(7) | 2,

I am also surprised; this has to be 16.
As there is no user, I will update as 16 in the same renaming patch.

Agree, but now it is taken care by the later patch in this series.
