commit 18a8bd949d6adb311ea816125ff65050df1f3f6e breaks serial_cs badly with an oops, completely killing PCMCIA.
register_console() now calls console->early_setup(). which in case of 8250.c (the only user anyway) is serial8250_console_early_setup() which is __init, calling 8250_early.c:serial8250_find_port_for_earlycon() which is __init as well. boom. the changelog mentions SERIAL_PORT_DFNS removal which happens to be commit 7e92b4fc345f5b6f57585fbe5ffdb0f24d7c9b26. but this got reverted by commit 57d4810ea0d9ca58a7bcc1336607f0cede0a2abf. so i'd suggest to just revert the 8250 changes as well. rgds -daniel - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
