And with an EG20T. Yes I see whats going on.

I think its being caused by Tomoya Morinaga's patch to handle EG20T
nicely. If you don't have the EG20T driver in then it tries to fall back
to 8250 but the entries are missing

.setup = pci_default_setup.


Patch to test will follow in about 2 minutes. Please test and report back.
