Hi Prakash,

It appears that this patch was not tested thoroughly. See below:

8250_core.c relies on sentinel value with p->flags = 0 to terminate
looking for more ports. You don't have sentinel values in any of pdata
the arrays you introduced so the code basically goes looking into areas
of memory not its own. This caused bunch of "cannot register port"
errors for me but I can easily imagine more serious errors.

Thanks,
