I get compile failure for 2.4.21-rc1:

"in irda_device_init: undefined reference to toshoboe_init".

Non-modular IrDA is not supported in 2.4.X and is known to be
broken in various way (see bottom of my web page). This was fixed in 2.5.24, but won't be fixed in the 2.4.X serie. However, I always accept trivial patches...

	Have fun...

Fix was to kill toshoboe_init() from irda_device_init(): it is module_init() so it gets called, anyway.

Unfortunately toshoboe in 2.4.21-rc1 works as badly as in 2.5: the "new" driver does not even detect it and the "old" driver breaks with max_baud > 9600.

Actually, it should probably be encapsualted in
TOSHIBA_OLD. But unfortunately, there is more than that, trust me.

First, please verify if you have the same problem when the
full IrDA stack and drivers are modular.
I would expect the same behaviour in 2.5.X and 2.4.X, because
it's the same driver. I personally don't have this hardware, so can't do much, and the maintainer are unresponsive. It supposed to work better if you pass the flag to bypass the self test.
Also, most modern Toshiba laptops seems to have SMC instead of
toshoboe hardware.

Good luck...
