Subject: serial: don't optimise away baud rate changes when BOTHER is used
From: David Woodhouse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The uart_set_termios() function will bail out early without bothering to
touch the hardware, if it decides that nothing "relevant" has changed.
Unfortunately, its idea of "relevant" doesn't include c_[io]speed. So if
the baud rate bits are BOTHER and you just change the speed, the change
gets optimised away.
This patch makes it ignore the old Bfoo bits in c_cflag and just check
whether c_ispeed and c_ospeed have changed. Those integers are always set
appropriately for us by set_termios().
