Subject: Adding driver for MCS9865 to the kernel sources

Hello,

i just want to ask why there is no working driver for the serial PCI chips MCS9865?
http://www.asix.com.tw/products.php?op=pItemdetail&PItemID=125;74;111&PLine=74

Because serial interfaces are not standard on mainboards any more, the relevance of such interface cards has increased.

It is not easy to get the driver working - e.g. on my running Debian wheezy the driver is loaded but not working.
When the driver would be integrated into the kernel sources i see a good chance that it will run in the distributions.

Best regards
Karsten
