Our IC designer create it, I just try to make it work.
Indeed, before Greg KH mentioned 8250-like, I didn't realize our uart
so much like 8250.
Thanks for your review.

Each UART has its own ISC register.
Ex.
dev/ttySUP0 base_adr = 0x9C00-0000 , isc_addr = 0x9C00-001C
dev/ttySUP1 base_adr = 0x9C00-0080 , isc_addr = 0x9C00-009C
dev/ttySUP2 base_adr = 0x9C00-0100 , isc_addr = 0x9C00-011C
dev/ttySUP3 base_adr = 0x9C00-0180 , isc_addr = 0x9C00-019C
dev/ttySUP4 base_adr = 0x9C00-0200 , isc_addr = 0x9C00-021C
So sunplus_shutdown() just simply turn off its own device isc only.
That's why I didn't read register value, just write 0 for it.
