is this fixing a bug or just making things better?
I guess it depends on your definition of bug :-) The problem has
always been
present in the kernel sources, and people seem to have coped with it
until
today. It is still a bug in my opinion, but I suppose the patch can
wait until
2.6.29 especially if we want to get it tested (it slightly changes
baud rates
after all).
Ok. I'll put this in the .29 queue. Can you provide a bit more detail
on the issue this is resolving.
