And, besides, I've gotten reports that the usb-serial drivers still behave 
the same as with 2.6.24.

It looks like the call to tty_termios_encode_baud_rate() in 
drivers/serial/8250.c is the culprit.  If I comment it out, everything 
appears to go back to normal (seemingly with no undesired side effects).

Why the call is there (it didn't replace anything else in the 2.6.24.7 
version of 8250.c, though it did in serial_core.c) remains a mystery to 
me.
