Subject: [PATCH] serial: Fix crash if the minimum rate of the device is > 9600 baud
Date: Mon, 04 Jan 2010 16:26:21 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100104162557.17151.23761.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)


(Resend for -next)

In that situation if the old rate is invalid and the new rate is invalid
and the chip cannot do 9600 baud we report zero, which makes all the
drivers explode.

Instead force the rate based on min/max
