So 8250 is requesting an IRQ for non-sharing mode and it's actually
failing, because something else is already using that IRQ. The difference
is that the kernel now generates a warning when this happens.

I don't see how your 8250 can be working if serial_link_irq_chain() has failed.

That would be appropriate if it is actually expected that the request_irq()
in there will fail, and we still manage to make the hardware work via some
fallback method. But I don't immediately see any code which does that.

Russell, any opinions?

Thanks.
