^low_latency
Minimize the receive latency of the serial device
at the cost of greater CPU utilization. (Normally
there is an average of 5-10ms latency before char-
acters are handed off to the line discpline to min-
imize overhead.) This is off by default, but cer-
tain real-time applications may find this useful.

Shouldn't that description go with "low_latency" rather than "^low_latency"?

Cheers.
