It had some testing but in a limited configuration and mostly for a
device that then got canned. Thus I can well believe the autocts/rts
isn't set right, and IntOscen may well only get set if the firmware
happens to do it etc

I would probably send it as four patches

1. A patch for the IntOscen configuration
2. A patch to fix autocts/rts
3. A patch to fix the register updates
4. A patch to add any platform specific stuff you need for your device.
