Can you put this patch in until there's a real fix? Is it by any chance the same problem that I noticed with the DECstation and reported in the thread starting at: "http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=119030963931879&w=2"? If so, there is a fix for the DECstation provided somewhere down the discussion which you may consider porting to IP22. I think the change to the serial core by RMK mentioned there has already been applied upstream. Ideally, of course, all the SCC drivers should get merged eventually, but due to subtle (and sometimes broken, as it is the case with the DECstation) differences in wiring for various systems it may never really happen, sigh...
