[PATCH] 16C950 clock autodetection

--=_mixed 00529325C1256B66_=
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Here is a patch that applies to drivers/char/serial.c in kernel 2.4.17, 
that automatically detects the clock frequency in a 16C950 chip and sets 
baud_base accordingly.

There are two caveats:
1. The patch has been tested on i386 machines and it works. It gives wrong 
results on ARM.
2. The patch sets baud_base if the serial chip is on a 16-bit PC card. If 
it is on a PCI card (PCI slot or 32-bit CardBus card) the baud_base is 
overwritten by the value in serial_pci_tbl[].
