Problems with UART terminal on Itanium server

[Nadal, Felip]

Hello,

I tried first to make the changes to uart_bus_pci.c, but it didn't help, I am not sure why. We are experiencing problems when trying to debug the kernel using the gdb backend through this serial port, our setup works (tested with minicom) but it seems like the device is not detected by the kernel as a debug console, no matter if we use the appropiate flags. I do not know if this could be related.

Bests,

Felip.

The patch was useful, though the actually change was made to
uart_bus_pci.c given that this is a single-port device.

Thanks!
