Weird. This is on an 8131/8111 system and it works fine on all 8132
counterparts.

As in: CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_DETECT_IRQ? This is already switched on.
The console is also overrunning now and then, but I assume this is the
result of the missing IRQ.
It seems to happen with 16G+ memory only, but I need to verify this
further.
