Subject: serial: enable higher baud rates for 16c95x
Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2009 13:22:26 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090624172213.GA21123@redhat.com> (raw)
This patch has been around (and in Fedora) for 4 years.
Previous discussion around this patch:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=112687270832687&w=2
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=126403
http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/2/208
The objection seemed to be summarised as "it might break something else".
In the four years it's been in Fedora, I don't recall seeing a single
serial bug report that was related.
