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.
2.6.29-rc1 is out and I haven't seen the patch being applied
anywhere. Is
there any blocking issue ?
I wasn't sure if you and Scott had come to resolution on the rounding
issue.
