Since it is an MMIO device, the code has been modified to accept MMIO based
devices as well. MMIO device settings are populated in the 'uart_config' table.
It also advertises 64 bit BAR. Therefore, code is reworked to account for 64
bit BAR and 64 bit MMIO lengths.

Some more quirks are - the need to shift the register offset by a specific
value and we also need to verify (UART_LSR_THRE && UART_LSR_TEMT) bits before
transmitting data.

While testing, include com1=115200,8n1,pci,0 on the xen cmdline to observe
output on console using SoL.

Changes from V6:
   - per Jan's comments:
     - Use bool_t for enable_ro
     - Reword comment
     - Use printk instead of WARN()
     - Use either pci_ro_device or pci_hide_device, not both.

Build testing this on 32-bit arm resulted in a buch of warnings about
trailing whitespace from git am and:
         ns16550.c: In function âns16550_initâ:
         ns16550.c:879:9: error: âstruct ns16550â has no member named 
âenable_roâ
         ns16550.c: At top level:
         ns16550.c:100:78: error: âuart_configâ defined but not used 
[-Werror=unused-variable]
         cc1: all warnings being treated as errors

Corrected these now. Sending out changes in V8.


The hypervisor is pretty easy to cross compile, compilers are available
from https://launchpad.net/linaro-toolchain-binaries and then
         make XEN_TARGET_ARCH=arm32 CROSS_COMPILE=arm-blah-blah- xen -jN
similarly for arm64.


Cross-compiled to arm32 and arm64 on a local machine after applying patch(git didn't complain) and xen tree builds fine.
