I don't expect there was any need to disable irq's across the request_irq() calls (?), hence: From: Julia Lawall <julia@xxxxxxx> rs_init() is failing to restore interrupts on two error paths, and is incorrectly calling tty_unregister_driver() with local interrupts disabled. Fix these things by disabling interrupts later, after the reauest_irq() calls.
