8250: Fix oops from setserial

b8e7e40a · Alan Cox <[email protected]> · 2009-05-28 14:01:35 +01:00

If you setserial a port which has never been initialised we change the type
but don't update the I/O method pointers. The same problem is true if you
change the io type of a port - but nobody ever does that so nobody noticed!

Remember the old type and when attaching if the type has changed reload the
port accessor pointers. We can't do it blindly as some 8250 drivers load custom
accessors and we must not stomp those.
