Subject: [PATCH] SERIAL: discover PNP ports before PCI, etc
Date: Wed, 09 Feb 2005 13:12:47 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1107979967.27371.42.camel@eeyore> (raw)

PNP ports tend to be built-in, and discovering them after
PCI ports means the names of the built-in ports can change
if you add or remove PCI ports.

(And yes, we should look at getting rid of 8250_acpi.c
now that we have PNPACPI, but that's for another patch.)
