Cause we get the port number from the console->index, if the cmdline is not set the ttyGS0 as the console, the console->index will be -1 that is a wrong value. Also the serial.c file will create 1 usb-to-seial port as default (default n_ports = 1), so we need to check the port and the endpoint of the port. So I think here checking is necessary and I have tested it. -- Baolin.wang Best Regards -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
