Subject: [PATCH] Serial: Move deprecation of register_serial forward to September
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.13-rc4~87^2~1
X-Git-Url: https://openfabrics.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=661f83a67c2e360d5a4d2406cc28379c909f94bf;p=~emulex%2Finfiniband.git

[PATCH] Serial: Move deprecation of register_serial forward to September

I think it's about time to make the build a little more vocal about the
expiry of these functions.  Due to recent discussions with problems in
the console initialisation vs power manglement, I'd like to move the
date forward to September.

 Why:	This interface does not allow serial ports to be registered against

 	of such ports.  8250-based ports should use serial8250_register_port
