[hcflinux] Re: three oops with hcfserial

[Johnny Luong]

Alright... I've hardwired that function to return -1
and not do anything else (the other stuff is commented out)

As a result, I was able to compile/run/get online with the
modem.  There are CRC errors occassionaly, and eventually,
I lose the connection.


Various printk() statements reveal to me that it goes through
your code successfully one time (rename returns a non-zero value),
and then when it goes through that code a second time, it
oops on the rename.  It locks up sometime as a result, but not
always...
