Ok, I finaly understand what you say now :-)
So, described situation is possible, only when some dialout application
previously send chars at different speed and modem remember
last speed. So, my comhardclose() fix with comparam(com->it_in)
isn't enough, because driver need to send AAAT\r command to modem
after it additionly :-(
Getty becomes too modem specific after it.
It need to send AAAT\r initially too to bring modem to current
getty speed first time :-(
So, any dialout program which change serial speed becomes
getty-killer. We need to document locked devices to getty/gettytab
manpage too as mandatory to not allow speed changes.
