I intentionally ignored that one as at the time of sending the patches,
it was marked as BROKEN in -next. It is still broken, since it does not
even have a tty_port for each port which is a requirement for a while
already. That is also a prerequisite to fix the build failure.

Steven, do you have any plans with the driver? What is its planned destiny?
