2e124b4a39 TTY: switch tty_flip_buffer_push
Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use
tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many
call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more
tty_port_tty_get in those paths.

Now, the one where most of tty_port_tty_get gets removed:
tty_flip_buffer_push.

IOW we also closed all the races in drivers not using tty_port_tty_get
at all yet.

Also we move tty_flip_buffer_push declaration from include/linux/tty.h
to include/linux/tty_flip.h to all others while we are changing it
anyway.

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use
tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty pointer in
many call sites. Only tty_port will be needed and hence no more
tty_port_tty_get calls in those paths.

Here we start with tty_buffer_request_room.

9671f09921 tty: remove use of __devinit
CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option so __devinit is no longer
needed.

191c5f1027 TTY: call tty_port_destroy in the rest of drivers
After commit "TTY: move tty buffers to tty_port", the tty buffers are
not freed in some drivers. This is because tty_port_destructor is not
called whenever a tty_port is freed. This was an assumption I counted
with but was unfortunately untrue. So fix the drivers to fulfil this
assumption.

To be sure, the TTY buffers (and later some stuff) are gone along with
the tty_port, we have to call tty_port_destroy at tear-down places.
This is mostly where the structure containing a tty_port is freed.
This patch does exactly that -- put tty_port_destroy at those places.

734cc17838 TTY: use tty_port_register_device
Currently we have no way to assign tty->port while performing tty
installation. There are two ways to provide the link tty_struct =>
tty_port. Either by calling tty_port_install from tty->ops->install or
tty_port_register_device called instead of tty_register_device when
the device is being set up after connected.

In this patch we modify most of the drivers to do the latter. When the
drivers use tty_register_device and we have tty_port already, we
switch to tty_port_register_device. So we have the tty_struct =>
tty_port link for free for those.

2f16669d32 TTY: remove re-assignments to tty_driver members
All num, magic and owner are set by alloc_tty_driver. No need to
re-set them on each allocation site.

pti driver sets something different to what it passes to
alloc_tty_driver. It is not a bug, since we don't use the lines
parameter in any way. Anyway this is fixed, and now we do the right
thing.

fd01a7a1bf drivers/tty: don't use the byte channel handle as a parameter in ehv_bytechan.c
The ePAPR hypervisor byte channel console driver only supports one byte
channel as a console, and the byte channel handle is stored in a global
variable.  It doesn't make any sense to pass that handle as a parameter
to the console functions, since these functions already have access to the
global variable.

191c5cf1ff tty/powerpc: fix build break with ehv_bytechan.c on allyesconfig
The ePAPR hypervisor byte channel driver is supposed to work on all
ePAPR-compliant embedded PowerPC systems, but it had a reference to the MSR_GS
bit, which is available only on Book-E systems.

Also fix a couple integer-to-pointer typecast problems.

dcd83aaff1 tty/powerpc: introduce the ePAPR embedded hypervisor byte channel driver
The ePAPR embedded hypervisor specification provides an API for "byte
channels", which are serial-like virtual devices for sending and receiving
streams of bytes.  This driver provides Linux kernel support for byte
channels via three distinct interfaces:

1) An early-console (udbg) driver.  This provides early console output
through a byte channel.  The byte channel handle must be specified in a
Kconfig option.

2) A normal console driver.  Output is sent to the byte channel designated
for stdout in the device tree.  The console driver is for handling kernel
printk calls.

3) A tty driver, which is used to handle user-space input and output.  The
byte channel used for the console is designated as the default tty.
