[PATCH 2/2] serial: 8250: Report which option to enable for blacklisted PCI devices

[Maciej W. Rozycki]

Provide information in the kernel log as to what configuration option to 
enable for PCI UART devices that have been blacklisted in the generic 
PCI 8250 UART driver and which have a dedicated driver available to 
handle that has been disabled.  The rationale is there is no easy way 
for the user to map a specific PCI vendor:device pair to an individual 
dedicated driver while the generic driver has this information readily 
available and it will likely be confusing that the generic driver does 
not register such a port.

A message is then printed like:

serial 0000:04:00.3: ignoring port, enable SERIAL_8250_PERICOM to handle

when an affected device is encountered and the generic driver rejects it.

Hi,

 Verified in a simulated environment as obviously I don't have a Pericom 
device.
