A while ago, I posted about TIOCMIWAIT not working with the PL2303 USB-serial adapter.
After a brief exchange with Greg, I tracked this to a missing wake-up in the USB interrupt procedures. I got our systems staff to install the enclosed very simple patch to our 2.6.12 kernels, and it all works fine as expected. I guess this should also apply to the latest version and go into the mainstream. Apologies for the long delay in posting the result.
