[Qemu-devel] [PATCH RFC v2 1/2] PC Chipset: Improve serial divisor calculation

[Calvin Lee]

This fixes several problems I found in the UART serial implementation.
Now all divisor values are allowed, while before divisor values of zero
and below the base baud rate were rejected. All changes are in reference
to http://www.sci.muni.cz/docs/pc/serport.txt

I included a slight code-style change in this commit because it seemed
close enough to the code I was editing to be relevant. If not, I can
change the commit to not include this change.
