It might be better not to use autoconfig.  Try this:

  ${SETSERIAL} -b /dev/ttyS2 irq 7 port 0x3E8 uart 16550A ${STD_FLAGS}

You don't need to reboot to test this.  This command does the same thing:

  setserial -b /dev/ttyS2 irq 7 port 0x3E8 uart 16550A

And this one will report the configuration of /dev/ttyS2:

  setserial /dev/ttyS2
