It is because we cannot predict which bar to look up if we hardcod
that in the generic ns16550 driver. Normally PCI ns16550 registers can
be memory-mapped or I/O mapped and it could use any of the 6 BARs.
What's more, on x86 for memory-mapped and I/O mapped they use
different instructions to access the registers, and there is one build
time macro (CONFIG_SYS_NS16550_PORT_MAPPED) to control this.
