tty/8250_pnp: serial port detection regression since v3.7 The InsydeH2O BIOS (version dated 09/12/2011) has the following in its pnp resouces for its serial ports: $ cat /sys/bus/pnp/devices/00:0b/resources state = active io disabled irq disabled We do not check if the resources are disabled, and create a bogus ttyS* device. Since commit 835d844d1a28e (8250_pnp: do pnp probe before legacy probe) we get a bogus ttyS0, which prevents the legacy probe from detecting it. Note, the BIOS can also be upgraded, fixing this problem, but for people who can't do that, this fix is needed.
