[PATCH 8/8] serial: 8250: fix comment about accessing EMSR

From: Wolfram Sang
Date: Wed Nov 16 2011 - 11:25:42 EST


All docs I checked do say LCR should NOT be 0xBF (16c850, 16c854,
16v2750). Fix it according to that, since the only usage of the register
currently implements the revised access method. If somebody later finds
a derivate which actually does need 0xBF to enable that register, we can
update the comment again with precise references.
