SubjectRe: 2.6.7-rc2-mm1 (nforce2 lockup)
Date
Hi Sid,

Can you try the attached patch, please? I reproduced the problem on
my Proliant DL360, and this patch fixes it for me.

The problem was that drivers/serial/8250_acpi.c found COM1 in the
ACPI namespace and called acpi_register_gsi() to set up its IRQ.
ACPI tells us that the COM1 IRQ is edge triggered, active high,
but acpi_register_gsi() was ignoring the edge_level argument,
so it blindly set the COM1 IRQ to be level-triggered.

This is against 2.6.7-rc3-mm1.
