Bug Description
[Impact]
The Marvell MacchiatoBin community board fails to boot with Ubuntu 17.04 due to a crash in the Fintek 8250 driver.
[Test Case]
Boot Ubuntu 17.04 on a Marvell MacchiatoBin board in UEFI/ACPI mode, check for crash.
[Regression Risk]
Fix looks straightforward to me - it avoids probing a PIO-only driver if the port is non-PIO, thus avoiding a crash on platforms where native PIO is unsupported. The fix is upstream and CC'd for stable, so there should be upstream support for any regressions it were to cause.
