We recently got rid of some modular code in this driver and also
got rid of the unused ".remove" function at the same time.  Thierry
noted that it was however possible to force the remove through the
bind/unbind interface.

Since this is a console device used on 2005 vintage 74xx based
powerpc embedded targets, and is essentially always used in
conjunction with SERIAL_MPSC_CONSOLE=y -- there is no sane reason
anyone would ever want to unbind the builtin driver and lose the
console.  So we just explicitly block bind/unbind operations and
prevent root from shooting themselves in the foot.

<title>drivers/tty: make serial/mpsc.c driver explicitly non-modular</title>

The Kconfig for this driver is currently:

config SERIAL_MPSC
        bool "Marvell MPSC serial port support"

...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.
Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that
when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.

Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular
case, the init ordering remains unchanged with this commit.

We leave some tags like MODULE_AUTHOR for documentation purposes.

We should not be doing assignments within an if () block
so fix up the code to not do this.

  They are dominated by the removal of the .owner field in platform

  just removing a line in a structure.

  Other than that, a few minor driver core and debugfs changes.  There
  are some ath9k patches coming in through this tree that have been
  acked by the wireless maintainers as they relied on the debugfs
  changes.

<title>serial: Fix IGNBRK handling</title>

<id>ef8b9ddcb45fa3b1e11acd72be2398001e807d14</id>
<content type='text'>
If IGNBRK is set without either BRKINT or PARMRK set, some uart
drivers send a 0x00 byte for BREAK without the TTYBREAK flag to the
line discipline, when it should send either nothing or the TTYBREAK flag
set. This happens because the read_status_mask masks out the BI
condition, which uart_insert_char() then interprets as a normal 0x00 byte.

SUS v3 is clear regarding the meaning of IGNBRK; Section 11.2.2, General
Terminal Interface - Input Modes, states:
  "If IGNBRK is set, a break condition detected on input shall be ignored;
   that is, not put on the input queue and therefore not read by any
   process."

Fix read_status_mask to include the BI bit if IGNBRK is set; the
lsr status retains the BI bit if a BREAK is recv'd, which is
subsequently ignored in uart_insert_char() when masked with the
ignore_status_mask.
