OK, most of the uarts I've seen, but not all, on the MIPS boards, are 
16C550 style UARTs.

All the same it would be desirable not to enable 'options uart_ns8520' 
in all cases.

I didn't point this out in my original message, but my concern with the 
commit as a whole, was more to do with the fact that GEOM_MBR and 
GEOM_BSD were being enabled by default.

For a kernel shipping on a system where there are no UFS filesystems or 
DOS style partitions, and often a 1MB kernel size limit (which may be 
compressed) it might be more desirable not to ship those by default. 
Same re uart_ns8250.
