[PATCH] serial: Fix crash if the minimum rate of the device is > 9600 baud

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



(Resend for -next)

In that situation if the old rate is invalid and the new rate is invalid
and the chip cannot do 9600 baud we report zero, which makes all the
drivers explode.

Instead force the rate based on min/max
