Have you tested the patch? The problem isn't in the patch itself, but as
I see the zs driver is broken for a long time. At least, I used to patch
heavily this driver for my Baget taht has 2 zs chips on board. Harald
has the plans to implement new version of the driver, but I guess he is
busy all the time. Or have I missed a cleanup of the driver ?

Also, changes in sunkbd.c, keyboard.c, and serial.c isn't a good idea.
:-)

Regards,
Gleb.
