This sounds like the card doesn't have a 'real' UART in it, but rather
a micro pretending to be one.  This is pretty tragic.

You could look the places in sioprobe() where the EXTRA DELAY comments
are, and try adding 'DELAY(500)' in these places.

The card failed to generate an interrupt when it should have.

... but it's generated it later.
