Hi Russel,
I tried the patch provided by Vitaly Wool. And it works correctly. And
now I'm successful with the PM support for my own serial8250 driver. Are
you planning to commit the Vitlaly's changes into the mainstream? I
guess it'll be helpful for the other people too. What I want is to know
whether this changes will be supported by the Community or not. It's
important for the project I'm worin on, cause I'm planning to push it
into Open Source ;)
Thanks,
Grigory.
