For the sake of being accurrate:
Who am I to judge "poor" the working solution almost instantly provided
by Sasha Khapyorsky?
Obtaining the same effect with a loadable module will be better because
it will not require compilation of the kernel, just of the module. But
when?
Any TRAINED user who wants the patched routine 8250_pci.c can obtain it
individually from me and rebuild her/his kernel. Including the patched
routine in a distro is not desirable because, very quickly, nobody will
know which version she/he uses, and forget to compile again the kernel
after the next kernel upgrade.
