Help with serial synths in 4.X kernels

[Tony Baechler]

First, 4.3 is considered stable which is why I picked it. We're already up 
to 4.3.3 which fixes bugs in earlier 4.3.X releases. Second, I'm not sure 
which patch you mean, but if you're referring to John's patch on his build 
instructions page which modifies serialio.c, yes, I applied it first to the 
vanilla sources and it locked up the machine. I didn't apply it after 
backporting the latest Speakup source from the staging tree because I didn't 
think it was necessary. I think some of Samuel's patches didn't get 
accepted, thus leaving serial synth support still broken.
