Am I gonna run in any trouble backporting the serial-marvel-poll stuff from
2.6.23 patches?

It's not included with 2.6.21, only the 8250.

It doesn't seem to be fine, I backported all the changes against
drivers/serial/mpsc.c in 2.6.21, and when the kernel boots, after the ttyMM1
init it just does an infinite loop of:

Total memory = 512MB; using 1024kB for hash table (at <blah>)

Driver in 2.6.21 ipmi_serial doesn't work on the Motorola F101.

Regards,
