Compiling 2.5.63 with PCI enabled and SERIAL_8250 as a module
generates these warnings from scripts/file2alias:do_pci_entry(),
via scripts/modpost:

*** Warning: Can't handle class_mask in drivers/serial/8250_pci:0001
*** Warning: Can't handle class_mask in drivers/serial/8250_pci:0002
*** Warning: Can't handle class_mask in drivers/serial/8250_pci:0004
*** Warning: Can't handle class_mask in drivers/serial/8250_pci:0008
*** Warning: Can't handle class_mask in drivers/serial/8250_pci:FFFF00
*** Warning: Can't handle class_mask in drivers/serial/8250_pci:FFFF00
*** Warning: Can't handle class_mask in drivers/serial/8250_pci:FFFF00

Non-fatal, but something's obviously not right.

Who maintains drivers/serial/, Theodore Ts'o or Russell King?

Me, but the entries are correct.  If we're unable to support a class
mask of 0xffff00, a fair amount of stuff is going to break, since it'll
match the programming interface byte as well.
