<title>[PATCH] remove TTY_DONT_FLIP</title>

<content type='text'>
Remove TTY_DONT_FLIP tty flag.  This flag was introduced in 2.1.X kernels
to prevent the N_TTY line discipline functions read_chan() and
n_tty_receive_buf() from running at the same time.  2.2.15 introduced
tty-&gt;read_lock to protect access to the N_TTY read buffer, which is the
only state requiring protection between these two functions.

The current TTY_DONT_FLIP implementation is broken for SMP, and is not
universally honored by drivers that send data directly to the line
discipline receive_buf function.

Because TTY_DONT_FLIP is not necessary, is broken in implementation, and is
not universally honored, it is removed.

Decrease the number of pointer derefs in drivers/serial/jsm/jsm_tty.c

Benefits of the patch:
 - Fewer pointer dereferences should make the code slightly faster.
 - Size of generated code is smaller
 - Improved readability

Digi serial port console doesn't work when baud rates are set higher than
38400.  So the lookup table and code in jsm_neo.c has been modified and
tested.  Please let me have the feed-back.

<title>[SERIAL] Clean up and fix tty transmission start/stoping</title>

<content type='text'>
The start_tx and stop_tx methods were passed a flag to indicate
whether the start/stop was from the tty start/stop callbacks, and
some drivers used this flag to decide whether to ask the UART to
immediately stop transmission (where the UART supports such a
feature.)

There are other cases when we wish this to occur - when CTS is
lowered, or if we change from soft to hard flow control and CTS
is inactive.  In these cases, this flag was false, and we would
allow the transmitter to drain before stopping.

There is really only one case where we want to let the transmitter
drain before disabling, and that's when we run out of characters
to send.

Hence, re-jig the start_tx and stop_tx methods to eliminate this
flag, and introduce new functions for the special "disable and
allow transmitter to drain" case.

The jsm driver uses a static number of 253.  The major number 253 is a
reserved for "LOCAL/EXPERIMENTAL USE" by both char and block devices.  So
take advantage of the dynamic allocation of major number by the kernel.
