Re: small design problem with hso driver

Surely if the driver returns an error code on hso_serial_open
hso_serial_close shouldn't be called
or have I a complete misunderstanding
of char driver semantics.

Generally yes that would be sane. The tty layer has always called the
close method of drivers on a failed open and the drivers are all written
assuming that.

It would be nice to change but there are far bigger fish to fry.
