serial comms error with smsclient  >2.6.25 , worked fine up until and
including 2.6.24.7

There is >2.6.25. It means post 2.6.26-rc1 inclusively?

Yes, it broke as of 2.6.25 , I also obtained  .1 through .4 and still
broken in each, I have not tried  2.6.26-rc1 as I assume the code
breaking this is still in the tree

If you double checked this, trying to CC Alan if he doesn't have a clue.
For reference:

Yes, checked.

Ah, this one goes through platform driver (why do you load istallion and stallion drivers?).

8250.c driver changes:
Alan Cox (3):
      serial: Coding style
      serial8250: coding style
      8250: enable rate reporting via termios

Will Newton (1):
      8250.c: support specifying DW APB UARTs in device platform_data

Nothing seems intrusive, but whatever changes in the rest of the serial might have caused it. Could you bisect it? I think it would be fast.

git-bisect v2.6.25 v2.6.24 -- drivers/char/ drivers/serial/
