If your mailing address would be working, I could have told you earlier.
However, I'm keeping copies two patches sent to LKML, one by Chip Salzenberg, the other by Lukasz Trabinski, at http://mandree.home.pages.de/kernelpatches/v2.2/v2.2.18/ they are named 2.2.18-fix-serial-5.05-boot.patch and 2.2.18-fix-serial-5.05-pre.patch (you need both).
