* On the 16650, we disable the FIFOs altogether

Once again, bad spelling screws up a coment. I'm guessing the "the" is
supposed to be "they" and the Linux coder takes exception to the design
decisions of the 16650 creators.
I haven't downloaded the latest kernel source, so I don't know if they've
fixed it or not. The Serial-HOWTO is of no use because it does not mention
16650s.
So, it looks like you need to buy a $200 RocketPort or some other smart
card if you really want to haul ass with Linux.
