977757311e imx: serial: notify higher layers in case xmit IRQ was not called
upper layers, namely line discipline, need to be notified
when transmission of more data is possible. For spurious
cases, where IRQ handling does not supply notification
for sure, it is given additionally here, when data has just
been transmitted and space in the buffer will most probably
be available.

26bbb3ff1f imx: serial: fix one bit field type
"have_rtscts" is assigned 1, while it is declared
int:1, two's complement, which can hold 0 and -1
only. The code works, as the upper bits are cut
off, and tests are done against 0 only.

Nonetheless, correctly declaring the bit field
as unsigned int:1 renders the code more robust.

4db2299da2 sierra: driver interface blacklisting
Interface blacklisting is necessary for non-serial interfaces that are handled
by a different driver. The interface blacklisting is implemented in sierra
driver per device. Each device in need of a blacklist has a static information
array kept in the driver. This array contains the interface numbers that are
blacklisted. The pointer for each blacklist array and the length
of that blacklist are 'bundled' in data structure sierra_iface_info. A pointer
to this information is set in id_table when the device is added to the id_table.

The following is summary of changes we have made to sierra.c driver in
this patch dealing with interface blacklisting support:
- Added data structure sierra_iface_info and function is_blacklisted()
to support blacklisting
- Modified sierra_probe() to handle blacklisted interfaces accordingly
- Improved comments in id_table
- Added new device in id_table with blacklist interface support

b9a44bc19f sierra: driver urb handling improvements
[Folded from eight patches into one as the original set according to the
 author "All of the patches need to be applied to obtain a working product"
 so keeping them split seems unhelpful

 Merge fixes done versus other conflicting changes and moved the
 spin_lock_init from open to setup time -- Alan]

Summary of the changes and code re-organization in this patch:

- The memory for urbs is allocated and urbs are submitted only for the active
  interfaces (instead of pre-allocating these for all interfaces). This will
  save memory especially in the case of using composite devices.
- The code has been re-organized and functionality has been extracted from
  sierra_startup(), sierra_shutdown(), sierra_open(), sierra_close() and added
  in helper functions sierra_release_urb(), sierra_stop_rx_urbs(),
  sierra_submit_rx_urbs() and sierra_setup_urb()

- Added function sierra_release_urb() to free an urb and its transfer
buffer.
- Removed unecessary include file reference and comment.
- Added function sierra_stop_rx_urbs() that takes care of the release of
receive and interrupt urbs. This function is to be called by sierra_close()
whenever an interface is de-activated.
- Added new function sierra_submit_rx_urbs() that handles the submission of
receive urbs and interrupt urbs (if any) during the interface activation.
This function is to be called by sierra_open(). Added a second parameter to
pass the memory allocation (as suggested by Oliver Neukum) so that this
function can be used in post_reset() and resume().
- Added new function sierra_setup_urb() that contains the functionality to
allocate an urb, fill bulk urb using the supplied memory allocation flag
and release urb upon error. Added parameter so that the caller pass the
memory allocation flag for flexibility.
- Moved sierra_close() before sierra_open() to resolve dependencies
introduced by the code reorganization.
- Modified sierra_close() to call sierra_stop_rx_urbs() and
sierra_release_urb() functions added in previous patch.
- Modified sierra_open() to call sierra_setup_urb() and sierra_submit_rx_urbs()
functions; note urbs are allocated and submitted for each activated interface.
- Modified sierra_startup() so that allocation of urbs happens whenever an
interface is activated (urb allocation is moved to sierra_open()).
- Modified sierra_shutdown() so that urbs are freed whenever an interface is
de-activated (urb freeing moved to sierra_close() as shown in previous patch
from the series)
- Removed unecessary data structure from sierra_port_private_data
- Suppress an entry in logs by not re-submitting an urb when usb_submit_urb()
returns -EPERM, as this shows that usb_kill_urb() is running (as suggested by
Oliver Neukum)

c65c9bc3ef tty: rewrite the ldisc locking
There are several pretty much unfixable races in the old ldisc code, especially
with respect to pty behaviour and also to hangup. It's easier to rewrite the
code than simply try and patch it up.

This patch
- splits the ldisc from the tty (so we will be able to refcount it more cleanly
  later)
- introduces a mutex lock for ldisc changing on an active device
- fixes the complete mess that hangup caused
- implements hopefully correct setldisc/close/hangup locking

There are still some problems around pty pairs that have always been there but
at least it is now possible to understand the code and fix further problems.

This fixes the following known bugs
- hang up can leak ldisc references
- hang up may not call open/close on ldisc in a matched way
- pty/tty pairs can deadlock during an ldisc change
- reading the ldisc proc files can cause every ldisc to be loaded

and probably a few other of the mysterious ldisc race reports.

I'm sure it also adds the odd new one.

e8b70e7d3e tty: Extract various bits of ldisc code
Before trying to tackle the ldisc bugs the code needs to be a good deal
more readable, so do the simple extractions of routines first.

5f0878acba tty: Fix oops when scanning the polling list for kgdb
Costantino Leandro found a bug in tty_find_polling_driver and provided a
patch that fixed the crash but not the underlying bug. This fixes the
underlying bug where the list walk corrupts the values it is using on a
match but then reuses them if the open fails.

38db89799b tty: throttling race fix
The tty throttling code can race due to the lock drops. It takes very high
loads but this has been observed and verified by Rob Duncan.

The basic problem is that on an SMP box we can go

	CPU #1				CPU #2
	need to throttle ?
	suppose we should		buffer space cleared
					are we throttled
					yes ? - unthrottle
	call throttle method

This changeet take the termios lock to protect against this. The termios
lock isn't the initial obvious candidate but many implementations of throttle
methods already need to poke around their own termios structures (and nobody
really locks them against a racing change of flow control).

This does mean that anyone who is setting tty->low_latency = 1 and then
calling tty_flip_buffer_push from their unthrottle method is going to end up
collapsing in a pile of locks. However we've removed all the known bogus
users of low_latency = 1 and such use isn't safe anyway for other reasons so
catching it would be an improvement.
