If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jan Kiszka commit e0bf2d4982fe7d9ddaf550dd023803ea286f47fc upstream. Apparently, this driver (or the hardware) does not support character length settings. It's apparently running in 8-bit mode, but it makes userspace believe it's in 5-bit mode. That makes tcsetattr with CS8 incorrectly fail, breaking e.g. getty from busybox, thus the login shell on ttyMVx. Fix by hard-wiring CS8 into c_cflag.
