The patch titled SERIAL: allow shared 8250_pnp interrupts has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is serial-allow-shared-8250_pnp-interrupts.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: SERIAL: allow shared 8250_pnp interrupts From: Bjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@xxxxxx> PNP devices can use shared interrupts, so check to see whether we'll need SA_SHIRQ for request_irq(). The builtin PDH UART on the HP rx8640 is an example of an ACPI/PNP device that uses a shareable level-triggered, active-low interrupt. The interrupt can be shared in very large I/O configurations or by artificially lowering IA64_DEF_LAST_DEVICE_VECTOR.
