Thinkpad T61 running 8.04 with the serial+parallel adapter for the
ultrabay-slim (pass through connectors to the mainboard's 8250 serial
adapter).

After boot, the serial port works.  However, after a suspend resume it
disappears and the kernel emits "ttyS0: LSR safety check engaged!".

workaround:  boot with the kernel option: pnpacpi=off

misc notes, hints, and guesswork:
- Looking at my udev log, I saw that the 8250 serial port is detected and 
activated.  And right after that, the pnp code detected and activated the 
serial port again.  Hmmnn...

- After disabling pnpacpi the "/sys/bus/pnp/devices/" node is empty, but
"/sys/bus/platform/devices/serial8250/tty/" is populated.

- Also, my lspci shows an LPC bus via ISA bridge as someone else noted above:
00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801HBM (ICH8M-E) LPC Interface 
Controller (rev 03)
