So you want me to drop all "if (up->gpios)" checks? I can do this in
some cases (e.g. serial8250_disable_ms()). But I would like to keep
it in other cases, like serial8250_out_MCR(), where this check prevents
some unnecessary code execution in the "non-gpios mode" (and vice-versa).

Would this be acceptable?

BTW: Regarding the OMAP specific code: I'm not the author of this code
and I don't have access to such hardware to do some tests here. But
changing IS_ERR_OR_NULL() -> IS_ERR() in this OMAP code does not
seem correct. IIUTC, these "if" clauses are extended here by
IS_ERR_OR_NULL(mctrl_gpio_to_gpiod()) to check if the GPIO's are not
enabled / used. Currently this will probably break, since when called
with "gpios == NULL", mctrl_gpio_to_gpiod() will crash [1].

If you don't object (or have other suggestions), I'll change this to
use "up->gpios == 0" instead. This seems to be what the original author
wanted to achieve.

Okay?

Thanks,
Stefan
