Exar sleep wake-up handling has been done on a per-channel basis by
virtue of INT0 being accessible from each channel's address space. I
believe this was initially done out of necessity, but now that Exar
devices have their own driver, we can do things more efficiently by
registering a dedicated INT0 handler at the PCI device level.
I see this change providing the following benefits:
1. If more than one port is active, eliminates the redundant bus
cycles for reading INT0 on every interrupt.
2. This note associated with hooking in the per-channel handler in
8250_port.c is resolved:
/* Fixme: probably not the best place for this */
