I do not understand the explanation above -> how does one do this?
If you are talking of the 8250 divider registers, someone has to program
those - how do you compute the baud rate from registers that aren't
programmed? Note: I am not commenting on the rationale of removing the
property, just trying to understand the assertion above.
