What: register_serial/unregister_serial
-When: December 2005
+When: September 2005
Why: This interface does not allow serial ports to be registered against
a struct device, and as such does not allow correct power management
of such ports. 8250-based ports should use serial8250_register_port
- and serial8250_unregister_port instead.
