60 Input and output for each line may set to one of following baud rates;
61 50, 75, 110, 134.5, 150, 300, 600, 1200, 1800, 2400, 4800,
65 is usually specified as 0xe since 3 of the 4 ports (1-3) do not support
66 modem control and should be treated as hard-wired with carrier always present.
67 If port 0 does not have the need for modem control then flags can be specified
73 has a 128 byte input silo and a 16 byte output silo.
74 Interrupts happen on a per character basis unless the interrupt
75 rate for the card reaches 70 interrupts per second at which time the
76 driver changes to a 16.7ms (60 interrupts per second) polling scheme until
77 the interrupt rate drops.
