linux-2.5.30/include/linux/serialP.h needs struct async_icount,
which is defined in <linux/serial.h>, causing
linux-2.5.30/drivers/serial/8250.c not to compile, among other problems.
In linux-2.5.30, you cannot compile a file that includes <linux/serialP.h>
without including <linux/serial.h>. So, I think the solution is for
serialP.h to #include serial.h. I have attached a patch that does this.
From the comments in serialP.h, it looks like there was some
effort in linux-2.2 to allow inclusion of serialP.h without serial.h,
but I see no indication of what benefit that was supposed to provide.
Ted (or whowever gathers drivers/serial patches for Linus), do
you want to shepherd this change to Linus, do you want me to submit it
directly, or do you want to do something else?
