Its up to the ARM maintainer and Wolfgang to decide if adding code in
one patch just to move it around in the 2nd is acceptable. I'm guess it
won't be acceptable since its considered "bad form", and its unclear
what patch in this series contains what functionality. Eg this isn't
really meant to "Add Tegra2 serial port support", it moves existing
serial port code around? And more? Its not really just adding serial
port support as the patch title states in any case.

Why should init_uart() be called two times? It looks to initialize both
ports, meaning it should only be called once, right?
Also, just noticed:
+static void init_uart(void)
+{
+#if CONFIG_TEGRA2_ENABLE_UARTA
+ uart_ctlr *const uart = (uart_ctlr *)NV_PA_APB_UARTA_BASE;
+
+ uart_clock_init();
+
+ /* Enable UARTA - uses config 0 */
+ pin_mux_uart();
+
+ setup_uart(uart);
+#endif /* CONFIG_TEGRA2_ENABLE_UARTD */
+#if CONFIG_TEGRA2_ENABLE_UARTD
+ uart_ctlr *const uart = (uart_ctlr *)NV_PA_APB_UARTD_BASE;
+
Have you compiled with both UARTA and UARTD enabled? Redeclaring 'uart'
in the middle of the function should throw an error or warning.
+ uart_clock_init();
+
+ /* Enable UARTD - uses config 0 */
+ pin_mux_uart();
+
+ setup_uart(uart);
+#endif /* CONFIG_TEGRA2_ENABLE_UARTD */
+}
Best,
Peter
