ok. I see you have also commented this.
Anyway this is kind of old discussion about moving serial drivers to
arch_initcall from module_init.
There is one patch in the tree.

[ARM] 5505/1: serial amba-pl011: move to arch_initcall for earlier
console
Signed-off-by: Alessandro Rubini <rub...@unipv.it>"

and then there was one patch (also sent to linux-serial but don't have link)
https://patches.linaro.org/patch/14633/
where that discussion wasn't finished.
There is one more patch which does that without real description for
this change.

serial: mps2-uart: make driver explicitly non-modular
Most of drivers are using module_init and only some of them arch_initcall.
Thanks,
