     ("8250: Don't clobber
    spinlocks.") introduced a regression on the parisc architecture, which
    broke the handover to the serial port at boottime.
    
    early_serial_setup() was changed to only copy a subset of the uart_port
    fields, and sadly the "type" and "line" fields were forgotten and thus
    the serial port was not initialized and could not be used for a
    handover.  This patch fixes this by copying the missing fields.
    
    As this change to early_serial_setup() doesn't need an initialized
    spinlock in the uart_port struct any longer, we can drop the spinlock
    initialization in the superio driver.
