[ARM] 3242/2: AT91RM9200 support for 2.6 (Serial)

Patch from Andrew Victor

This patch adds support to the 2.6 kernel series for the Atmel
AT91RM9200 processor.

This patch is the Serial driver.

This version uses the newly re-written GPL'ed hardware headers.

+          Say Y here if you wish to have the five internal AT91RM9200 UARTs
+          appear as /dev/ttyAT0-4 (major 240, minor 0-4) instead of the
+          normal /dev/ttyS0-4 (major 4, minor 64-68). This is necessary if
+          you also want other UARTs, such as external 8250/16C550 compatible
+          UARTs.
+          The ttySn nodes are legally reserved for the 8250 serial driver
+          but are often misused by other serial drivers.
+
+          To use this, you should create suitable ttyATn device nodes in
+          /dev/, and pass "console=ttyATn" to the kernel.
+
+          Say Y if you have an external 8250/16C550 UART.  If unsure, say N.
