This makes no sense to me. I have never seen any 9 bit registers in any processor I ever encountered in real life. Registers are typically 8, 16, 32 or 64 bit. If your register holds 9 data bits, then it is most probably a 16 or 32 bit wide register. Also, in this case the serial controller is probably not NS16550 compatible, because AFAICT the NS16550 uses only 8 bit wide registers. Further, it is not clear to me why there is a Mervell specific version of the NS16550 driver (board/Marvell/common/ns16550.*).
