These are ordinary 16450 values which are defined in <ic/ns16550.h>.

This is misformatted with a space instead of a tab after #define.

Since it's a 16450, uart(4) can probably handle the entire console driver,
with fewer bugs (some locking is required in a general console driver).
Of course, it's easier to write a primitive console driver by hacking on
the raw registers than to interface with uart.

Style bugs (extra and missing blank lines, and comment punctuation).

It's better to put the reg_shift complications at the lowest level.

reg_shift could probably be const or #defined so that all the calculations
with it can be done at runtime.

Bogus cast.  val already has type u_int32_t.  u_int32_t should be spelled
uint32_t in new code.

The normal console driver does this in upper layers.  Is this driver
only for a very specialized console driver for use at boot time?
I'm not sure if uart(4) works then.

They don't support reg_shift, but should work otherwise.  You do the
shifting somewhere and then use bus-space at the level of uart_getreg()
above.
