I guess it depends on your definition of bug :-) The problem has always been present in the kernel sources, and people seem to have coped with it until today. It is still a bug in my opinion, but I suppose the patch can wait until 2.6.29 especially if we want to get it tested (it slightly changes baud rates after all). -- Laurent Pinchart CSE Semaphore Belgium Chaussee de Bruxelles, 732A B-1410 Waterloo Belgium T +32 (2) 387 42 59 F +32 (2) 387 42 75 _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
