a memory\noffset, while for other SCIF types it is an enum value used to index\ninto the sci_port_params->regs array, as mentioned above the\nsci_serial_in() function.\n\nFor RSCI, the overrun_reg is CSR (0x48), causing the sci_getreg() call\ninside the sci_handle_fifo_overrun() function to index outside the\nbounds of the regs array, which currently has a size of 20, as specified\nby SCI_NR_REGS.\n\nBecause of this, we end up accessing memory outside of RSCI's\nrsci_port_params structure, which, when interpreted as a plat_sci_reg,\nhappens to have a non-zero size, causing the following WARN when\nsci_serial_in() is called, as the accidental size does not match the\nsupported register sizes.\n\nThe existence of the overrun_reg needs to be checked because\nSCIx_SH3_SCIF_REGTYPE has overrun_reg set to SCLSR, but SCLSR is not\npresent in the regs array.\n\nAvoid calling sci_getreg() for port types which don't use standard\nregister handling.\n\nUse the ops->read_reg() and ops->write_reg() functions to properly read\nand write registers for RSCI, and change the type of the status variable\nto accommodate the 32-bit CSR register.\n\nsci_getreg() and sci_serial_in() are also called with overrun_reg in the\nsci_mpxed_interrupt() interrupt handler, but that code path is not used\nfor RSCI, as it does not have a muxed
