The Mediatek 8250 driver has a 'bool' Kconfig symbol, but that
breaks when SERIAL_8250 is a loadable module:

drivers/tty/built-in.o: In function `mtk8250_set_termios':
8250_ingenic.c:(.text+0x1bee8): undefined reference to `serial8250_do_set_termios'
8250_ingenic.c:(.text+0x1bf10): undefined reference to `uart_get_baud_rate'
8250_ingenic.c:(.text+0x1c09c): undefined reference to `uart_get_divisor'
drivers/tty/built-in.o: In function `mtk8250_do_pm':
8250_ingenic.c:(.text+0x1c0d0): undefined reference to `serial8250_do_pm'
drivers/tty/built-in.o: In function `mtk8250_probe':
8250_ingenic.c:(.text+0x1c2e4): undefined reference to `serial8250_register_8250_port'
serial/8250/8250_mtk.c:287:242: error: data definition has no type or storage class [-Werror]
serial/8250/8250_mtk.c:287:122: error: 'mtk8250_platform_driver_init' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]

This changes the symbol to a 'tristate', so the dependency on
SERIAL_8250 also works when that is set to 'm'.
To actually build the driver, we also need to include <linux/module.h>.

Note that the driver uses builtin_platform_driver() and implements
no .remove() callback, so unloading the module is not possible.

Probably should drop the ingenic lines above ; assuming they are make -j N
related and that mtk doesn't depend on or build ingenic.

But this is due to d72d391c126e0ffd3047c06c4bef4d795853d5d5.  So again,
I'm not sure what this achives vs. just making it depend on having
SERIAL_8250=y as a trivial fix for the one build issue.

If you really see a use case for tristate, then the above should be
reverted before adding your conversion to tristate I think.

I tried this with:
commit 2178cbc68f3602dc0b5949b9be2c8383ad3d93ef

$ grep 8250 .config
CONFIG_SERIAL_8250=m
# CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_DEPRECATED_OPTIONS is not set
CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_PCI=m
CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS=4
CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_RUNTIME_UARTS=4
# CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_EXTENDED is not set
# CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_DW is not set
# CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_RT288X is not set
CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_MT6577=y
# CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_INGENIC is not set
# CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_MID is not set

$ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- drivers/tty/

compiles just fine.

Do I missing something?

Regards,
Matthias

I looked at these again and noticed that this is just being misreported
by the linker. I don't know exactly what happens here but I see it a lot:
the function names ("mtk8250_set_termios") are all correct, but the file
names ("8250_ingenic.c") are wrong. I normally edit out the file names
manually but forgot that here. I'll fix it up when resending.
