My current problem is with the UART (and I'm using serial console only,
so it's problem). When I wake up, I can type commands to my shell and
see them echoed correctly. However the result of those commands is
garbled, like so:
  ls
    1  tm[lc ;u;v  43m
Sometimes I get the message "ttyS: 1 input overrun(s)". Return
characters come through as spaces.

This is a wild guess, but could it be that FIFO mode hasn't been
turned on during the restore.  That way individual characters being
echoed (slowly) might work, but faster transfers get garbled, because
the 405 can't keep up with the interrupts.

It looks like this was the problem. I'd tried that of course, but this
made me double-check it. :)
