It was my understanding that the SIOCADDR boot error was not a bug in the
kernel since the dev kernel now sets up routing automatically and an
explicit call to "route" is no longer needed. Perhaps your TIOCSER*
problem is related.  Check out the Documentation directory in your kernel
source directory.  It may contain files that explain the error/warning.
