Yes you are right, did not know about the gener MMIO lib but seems to be
the right think for this driver. I will change that.

Yes MCB is already upstream and there is alreay a driver upstream named
men_Z135_uart. MCB is called "MEN Chameleon Bus" which is out FPGA.
The FPGA implements a table named "Chameleon Table" which describes the IPs
in the FPGA.

OK, will change that.

Yes there is an Interrupt support but not completly implemented in HW.
My IC designer is currently in holiday and he is planned to do the IRQ work
in a few weeks (month).
The plan was to start without IRQ support and get the driver upstream.

Yes did not want to implement this from day 1, but i think you are right
I should do that, its not a complicated thing :-)

Need to check if this is current implementation is working, but should be no
problem to implement this.

Thanks for your comments. I will send a v2 today or tomorrow.
