afaict this code:
/*
* At this point, there's no way the LSR could still be 0xff;
* if it is, then bail out, because there's likely no UART
* here.
*/
if (!(up->port.flags & UPF_BUGGY_UART) &&
(serial_inp(up, UART_LSR) == 0xff)) {
printk("ttyS%d: LSR safety check engaged!\n", up->port.line);
return -ENODEV;
}
is unchanged since 2.6.1, so I'm unsure what change you're proposing here?
