Yes Greg. I think "8250 PCI library" would be the correct name. Is that fine?
Regarding the copyright, we moved the "setup_port" function from 8250_pci.c to this new file.
Can I use the same copyright statement from 8250_pci.c "Copyright (C) 2001 Russell King, All Rights Reserved."?

Yes. I will rename as you mentioned.

Thank You.
