Description Christoph Biedl 2013-08-08 22:33:11 UTC
Hi there,

Sorry for nitpicking but that caused extra confusion in an
already weird topic.


commit 9326b047e4fd4a8da72e59d913214a1803e9709c
Author: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz>

    TTY: 8250, deprecated 8250_core.* options

introduced the SERIAL_8250_DEPRECATED_OPTIONS kernel option.

In the documentation drivers//tty/serial/8250/Kconfig I find
the wording "... have to keep the 8350_core.* options ..."
and I bet that should be "8250_core", too.

Cheers,
    Christoph
