Quad serial CardBus appears as 8 ports, only one useable.

Hi.
I have a 4-port CardBus device. The kernel (2.6.14-rc1) detects 8 ports:

[   75.126331] PCI: Enabling device 0000:06:00.0 (0000 -> 0003)
[   75.126375] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:06:00.0[A] -> Link [LNKA] -> GSI 
11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11
[   75.128420] ttyS4: detected caps 00000700 should be 00000100
[   75.128441] ttyS4 at I/O 0x3060 (irq = 11) is a 16C950/954
[   75.131674] ttyS5: detected caps 00000700 should be 00000100
[   75.131695] ttyS5 at I/O 0x3068 (irq = 11) is a 16C950/954
[   75.135594] ttyS6: detected caps 00000700 should be 00000100
[   75.135617] ttyS6 at I/O 0x3070 (irq = 11) is a 16C950/954

[   75.145220] ttyS7 at I/O 0x3078 (irq = 11) is a 16C950/954
[   75.218480] PCI: Enabling device 0000:06:00.1 (0000 -> 0003)
[   75.218530] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:06:00.1[A] -> Link [LNKA] -> GSI 
11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11
[   75.224327] ttyS8 at I/O 0x3020 (irq = 11) is a 16450
[   75.233726] ttyS9 at I/O 0x3028 (irq = 11) is a 16450
[   75.243654] ttyS1 at I/O 0x3030 (irq = 11) is a 16450
[   75.257886] ttyS2 at I/O 0x3038 (irq = 11) is a 16450

I can't get any of the ports to work with vanilla code.

Adding the following code to 8250_pci.c:

+       {       PCI_VENDOR_ID_OXSEMI, 0x9504,
+               PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0,
+               pbn_b0_bt_4_921600 },

allows me to use any of the 8 ports from minicom, but only if I 
physically connect the first port. I.e.:
I get data trough the first physical port, no matter what port I choose 
to use in minicom.

The card works as expected in an Alternative Operating System, using 
these drivers: http://www.oxsemi.co.uk/download/updates/up000001/v4_09.zip

Suggestions?
