x86, drivers/pnpbios: Replace paravirt_enabled() check with legacy device check Since we are removing paravirt_enabled() replace it with a logical equivalent. Even though PNPBIOS is x86 specific we add an arch-specific type call, which can be implemented by any architecture to show how other legacy attribute devices can later be also checked for with other ACPI legacy attribute flags. This implicates the first ACPI 5.2.9.3 IA-PC Boot Architecture ACPI_FADT_LEGACY_DEVICES flag device, and shows how to add more. The reason pnpbios gets a defined structure and as such uses a different approach than the RTC legacy quirk is that ACPI has a respective RTC flag, while pnpbios does not. We fold the pnpbios quirk under ACPI_FADT_LEGACY_DEVICES ACPI flag use case, and use a struct of possible devices to enable future extensions of this. As per 0-day, this bumps the vmlinux size using i386-tinyconfig as follows: TOTAL TEXT init.text x86_early_init_platform_quirks() +32 +28 +28 +28 That's 4 byte overhead total, the rest is cleared out on init as its all __init text. v2: split out subarch handlng on switch to make it easier later to add other subarchs. The 'fall-through' switch handling can be confusing and we'll remove it later when we add handling for X86_SUBARCH_CE4100. v3: document vmlinux size impact as per 0-day, and also explain why pnpbios is treated differently than the RTC legacy feature.

PNP: notice whether we have PNP devices (PNPBIOS or PNPACPI) This series converts i386 and x86_64 legacy serial ports to be platform devices and prevents probing for them if we have PNP. This prevents double discovery, where a device was found both by the legacy probe and by 8250_pnp. This also prevents the serial driver from claiming IRDA devices (unless they have a UART PNP ID). The serial legacy probe sometimes assumed the wrong IRQ, so the user had to use "setserial" to fix it. Removing the need for setserial to make IRDA devices work seems good, but it does break some things. In particular, you may need to keep setserial from poking legacy UART stuff back in by doing something like "dpkg-reconfigure setserial" with the "kernel" option. Otherwise, the setserial-discovered "UART" will claim resources and prevent the IRDA driver from loading. This patch: If we can discover devices using PNP, we can skip some legacy probes. This flag ("pnp_platform_devices") indicates that PNPBIOS or PNPACPI is enabled and should tell us about builtin devices.
