Sorry, that was vague.  I just reacted to the sserial sub-driver messing 
with the registers of another module (ioport in this case).  That kind 
of cross-module dependency is something i tried to avoid.

But that said, i see your reason for doing it...  Much of the blame 
probably belongs with the internal handling of ioports in the hostmot2 
driver, which is pretty rough, so it's not easy for sub-drivers like 
sserial to do things cleanly and clearly.
