That is what I mean that changing CONFIG_SERIAL to
$(call lor,$(CONFIG_SERIAL_ISA), $(CONFIG_SERIAL_PCI))

is not enough.

It is really, really interesting, we have:

- serial_init()
  used is sh4, mips and imx serial

- serial_mm_init()
  loads of places

- serial_hds_isa_init()
  sparc64, ppc, other mips, and pc

And now you can start getting creative with qom.

O:-)

Later, Juan.
