Patch didn't apply cleanly ... it looks like you have another patch that
deleted these lines:
        if (ret < 0)
                return ret;
from tty_ldisc_wait_idle() ... so I think I hand applied around this by dropping
those lines too - but I might have goofed.

Anyway - the patch as modified by me didn't work. I still see the hang.

Base distro is SLES11-SP1
Init version: sysvinit-2.86-198.20

System is headless (no graphic card) so serial console is all I have.

ia64 early serial console is enabled with boot argument:
console=uart,mmio,0xff5e0000
