Do I understand it right, that with this change all UARTs, controlled by legacy_serial will be initialized later, and that for example console output will be first possible later? Maybe, if there is really no other possibility for I/O space devices, we could have both calls arch_initcall(serial_mem_dev_init); device_initcall(serial_io_dev_init); so, that at least MEMIO based UARTs could still initialize as before?
