Oh, it's definitely a build issue, after I wiped out the modules directory
and re-ran modules_install, depmod warned about the same issue.
So I did a make clean and rebuilt, rebooted, and it still has the same
problem :/
I vaguely remember having something likes on x86 a couple of times.
Once it happened when I tried to insert the smc-ircc2 IRDA driver, it needed
to be loaded before the native 8250 stuff. In that case it was vice-verse -
the irda stuff showed undefined symbols.
And then another time I saw the problem with Xen - I told it to use ttyS0
for its own console, and then the 8250 modules couldn't get loaded because of
its undefined symbols (possibly the very same ones as the above), until I
switched 'xencons' over to ttyS31.
Could it be that the sunsu driver is somehow disturbing 8250?
