Add ACPI support to 8250_bcm2835aux driver. This makes it possible to
use the miniuart on the Raspberry Pi with the tianocore/edk2 UEFI

This does not seem necessary, if the clk is NULL when probed via ACPI,
all of the clk_* APIs will deal with that gracefully. If you need not
to treat -ENOENT as a hard error here, consider switching to
devm_clk_get_optional(). Given that you look at the 'clock-frequency'
property, you can still have some generic code, something like:
if (IS_ERR(data->clk)) {
ret = device_property_read_u32(&pdev->dev, "clock-frequency",
&uartclk);
if (ret)
return dev_err_probe(&pdev->dev, ret, "could not get
clk\n");
}

All of that path can be common, and you can just define an offset to
apply to the resource at the top after you fetched the memory
resource. The offset will be non-0 for ACPI and 0 for non-ACPI. That
is, no need for the intermediate variables and conditional paths
whether this is ACPI apply this offset, or not.

And ACPI on the Pi4 is so widely deployed that fixing the miniuart
resources is not an option at all? This really really continues to
contribute to my impression that ACPI on the Pi4 is a fad more than a
real thing, sorry.
The problem again, is that this resource is legacy and used by
windows/vmware/etc on both the rpi3 and rpi4. So, unfortunately it
cannot really be changed without breaking existing OSs.
Cannot we create another entry that only Linux would match? This is the
first time that an attempt for ACPIfying the 8250_bcm2835aux is done as
far as upstream is concerned so any cruft of legacy that is artificial
should really be avoided and this appear to be some.
