That is something I got from the linux kernel or u-boot bootloader.
take arch/ppc/platforms/4xx/cpci405.h or any other.
You just took the value from the CPU without actually setting the UART
divisor. That means, you never really modified the divisor depending
on CPU speed and desired baud rate, which is necessary (besides setting
the DLM and DLL registers).
