As Allen implied, you wont need to implement much of a bus_space
if all you want to do is access a UART.

Using Anand's REGVAL macro you'd probably only need to implement the
map, barrier, read_1 and write_1 functions.  The first two of those
could probably be no-ops and the last two could just use a REGVAL8
macro (a REGVAL macro that uses uint8_t instead of uint32_t).

arch/powerpc/ibm4xx/dev/com_opb.c is an example of an on-chip
16550-alike UART attaching to the generic com driver.
