This patch (as1292) modifies the USB serial console driver, to make it compatible with the recent changes to the USB serial core. The most important change is that serial->disc_mutex now has to be unlocked following a successful call to usb_serial_get_by_index(). Other less notable changes include: Use the requested port number instead of port 0 always. Prevent the serial device from being autosuspended. Use the ASYNCB_INITIALIZED flag bit to indicate when the port hardware has been initialized. In spite of these changes, there's no question that the USB serial console code is still a big hack.
