This should be cleaned up better than that, what -kind- of uart is it?
There should be things called
	uart_8250 (should be able to drive everything from 8250 to 16950)
	uart_8530 (this is probalby the second most common uart in the world)
	uart_6850 (we would probably never see one of these)
	etc...

Please do not lock this to a specific Mips chip if at all possible
