Here is a patch which updates various serial drivers in the kernel to make
them less broken than they were before.  Nevertheless, they are still
broken.

The improvement is to make these drivers use the tiocmget/tiocmset methods,
which are present in the 2.6 kernel.

Many of these have been incorrectly converted from the old global IRQ
locking without regard for SMP issues, or still use the old global IRQ
locking methods which are no longer present in 2.6 kernels.

* a bugfix to setcolreg() in 16 bit modes: there have to be 32 colour

  colours, it is a bit misleading that setcolreg() is used both for

  (The behaviour should be selected using the visual and the rgb
   representation rather than the current BPP setting. --rmk)

* take the limited bandwidth of the RiscPC video memory into account
  for acornfb_valid_pixrate()
* acornfb_vidc20_find_rates() now takes into account the differences
  between VRAM and DRAM when setting the FIFO preload value. With
  VRAM, the FIFO can be set to the highest possible setting because
  there are no latency considerations for other memory accesses.
  However, in 64 bit bus mode the FIFO preload value must not be set
  to VIDC20_CTRL_FIFO_28 because this will let the FIFO overflow.

  Multifreq monitor (this is of course a philosophical question, but
  I believe a sensible default setting should not impose too much
