- Operations are now a shared const function block as with most other Linux
  objects

- Introduce wrappers for some optional functions to get consistent behaviour

- Wrap put_char which used to be patched by the tty layer

- Document which functions are needed/optional

- Make put_char report success/fail

- Cache the driver-&gt;ops pointer in the tty as tty-&gt;ops

- Remove various surplus lock calls we no longer need

- Remove proc_write method as noted by Alexey Dobriyan

- Introduce some missing sanity checks where certain driver/ldisc
  combinations would oops as they didn't check needed methods were present

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix fs/compat_ioctl.c build]
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix isicom]
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix arch/ia64/hp/sim/simserial.c build]

Remove proc_root export.  Creation and removal works well if parent PDE is
supplied as NULL -- it worked always that way.

So, one useless export removed and consistency added, some drivers created
PDEs with &amp;proc_root as parent but removed them as NULL and so on.

<title>drivers/char/ip2: separate polling and irq-driven work entry points</title>

Polling currently calls the irq handler, which loops through all the
boards, calling the work function for all polling boards with work.

irq handling loops through all the boards, finding the specific board
that applies to us, and calling the work just for that one board.

The two logics are sufficiently different to warrant different
functions, rather than being slack and calling the same function in two
different ways.

This serves to make the interrupt handler a -lot- more efficient.
