Public bug reported:

[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.
