Remove the ISDN (mISDN, CAPI) subsystem and Bluetooth CMTP protocol
from the kernel tree.

ISDN is a pretty old technology and it's unclear whether anyone still
uses it. I went over the last few years of git history and all the
commits are either tree-wide conversions or syzbot/static analyzer
fixes.

When we discussed removal in the past IIRC there were some concerns
about ISDN still being used in parts of Germany. Unfortunately, the
code base is quite old, none of the current maintainers are familiar
with it and AI tools will have a field day finding bugs here.

Delete this code and preserve it in an out-of-tree repository
for any remaining users:
https://github.com/linux-netdev/mod-orphan

UAPI constants AF_ISDN/PF_ISDN and the SELinux isdn_socket class
are preserved for ABI stability, but the rest of uAPI is removed.

In a future patch HAS_IOPORT=n will result in inb()/outb() and friends
not being declared. We thus need to add HAS_IOPORT as dependency for
those drivers using them. With that the !S390 dependency on ISDN can be
removed as all drivers without HAS_IOPORT requirement now build.

The last remnant of the isdn4linux interface is now the isdnhdlc
support, used by the netjet driver. Move it next to that driver.

CONFIG_8xx is deprecated and should soon be removed in favor
of CONFIG_PPC_8xx.
Anyway, hfc_multi_8xx.h only uses 8xx I/O ports which are
linked to the CPM1 communication processor included in the 8xx
rather than the 8xx itself.

This patch therefore makes it dependent on CONFIG_CPM1 instead,
like several other drivers.

<title>tty: Added a CONFIG_TTY option to allow removal of TTY</title>

The option allows you to remove TTY and compile without errors. This
saves space on systems that won't support TTY interfaces anyway.
bloat-o-meter output is below.

The bulk of this patch consists of Kconfig changes adding "depends on
TTY" to various serial devices and similar drivers that require the TTY
layer.  Ideally, these dependencies would occur on a common intermediate
symbol such as SERIO, but most drivers "select SERIO" rather than
"depends on SERIO", and "select" does not respect dependencies.

bloat-o-meter output comparing our previous minimal to new minimal by
removing TTY.  The list is filtered to not show removed entries with awk
'$3 != "-"' as the list was very long.
