So the test I would do is build build a plain v6.5 kernel, boot it, modprobe 8250_exar, rmmod 8250_exar, and then again modprobe 8250_exar. So maybe the first modprobe 8250_exar works after boot, but the second modprobe 8250_exar won't? > Do you see anything concerning or possibly incorrect with the way I am > building the 8250_exar module? No I don't see how that would make a difference. Regards, Tony
