Here's my serial config..., also these dont show up if i just=20
run "make ads8272_defconfig". I have to explicitly go and enable the
serial options.

#
# Serial drivers
#
CONFIG_SERIAL_8250=3Dy
CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_CONSOLE=3Dy
CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS=3D4
# CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_EXTENDED is not set

#
# Non-8250 serial port support
#
CONFIG_SERIAL_CORE=3Dy
CONFIG_SERIAL_CORE_CONSOLE=3Dy
# CONFIG_SERIAL_CPM is not set
# CONFIG_SERIAL_JSM is not set
CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS=3Dy
CONFIG_LEGACY_PTYS=3Dy
CONFIG_LEGACY_PTY_COUNT=3D256

Thanks!
