Tried, unsuccessfully , to dig up the end of the original thread. In the 
end my patch was deemed unworthy for:
1. Creating a security whole. I am not a security expert so I just 
accepted it as is.
2. Trying to fix something that is not broken. i.e. multiple entry to 
uart_handle_break() upon break trigger is a localized problem to my 
hardware.

If something changed and you need my help I will be more then happy to 
extend it.
