Can we get it into 2.6.26 - its a driver for new hardware and the driver

Comments below are minor and I don't think blockers

tty is passed why keep using serial->tty (hint: think about parallel
hangup versus close/open)

tty cannot be NULL here

Checks one thing printks another 8)

(else *tty->termios = *old_termios)
