I'm confused by all this. Not so much your code, which is correct, but
your reason for doing all of this in the first place. On a somewhat sane
BIOS, it should have already set up all your descriptors and GPIO pins
long before the kernel booted. Not that you should trust blindly the BIOS
in all things, but as long as this is handled for you, you might as well take
advantage of it.

Now, if your particular board has its own very good reasons for handling
this, then thats fine, but I don't think this should be accepted as CS5535
support, because it stands a fairly good chance of causing trouble over
the larger set of Geode devices. I'll certainly listen to arguments
to the contrary, though.

> - (optionally) enables UART2 and configures it as a NS16550A

This is similar to code that has previously been submitted, and is attached
below. Please review and comment.

> - (optionally) enables the SMBus/I2C interface

Is there any reason why you can't use the PCI devices instead? Granted,
the SMBUS and GPIO are part of a multi-function device (which has a higher
annoyance level), but it still seems better then passing around the global
variables that you read from the MSR. Also, PCI has the advantage of being
a much cleaner and well traveled path, which is always nice.

Regards,
Jordan

GEODE: Support second UART on CS5535

The CS5535 has a muxed serial port that can either be used to drive GPIO pins
or a second 16550 UART. This code enables the UART via a command line option.
