If by some reason any of the headers will include ctype.h
we will have a name collision. Avoid this by moving isspace()
to the dedicate namespace.

First appearance of the code is in the commit 24a1c2a769cf

Merge VT_RESIZEX fixes from Maciej Rozycki:
 "I got to the bottom of the issue with VT_RESIZEX recently discussed
  and came up with this small patch series, fixing an additional issue
  that I originally thought might be broken VGA hardware emulation with
  my laptop, which however turned out to be intertwined with the
  original problem and also a regression introduced somewhat later.

  The fix for that because the first patch, and then to make backporting
  feasible I had to put a revert of the offending change from last
  September next, followed by a proper fix for the framebuffer issue
  that change had tried to address.

  See individual change descriptions for details.

  These have been verified with true VGA hardware (a Trident TVGA8900
  ISA video adapter) using various combinations of `svgatextmode' and
  `setfont' command invocations to change both the VT size and the font
  size, and also switching between the text console and X11, both by
  starting/stopping the X server and by switching between VTs.

  All this to ensure bringing the behaviour of VGA text console back to
  correct operation as it used to be with Linux 2.6.18"

Restore the original intent of the VT_RESIZEX ioctl's `v_clin' parameter
which is the number of pixel rows per character (cell) rather than the
height of the font used.

For framebuffer devices the two values are always the same, because the
former is inferred from the latter one.  For VGA used as a true text
mode device these two parameters are independent from each other: the
number of pixel rows per character is set in the CRT controller, while
font height is in fact hardwired to 32 pixel rows and fonts of heights
below that value are handled by padding their data with blanks when
loaded to hardware for use by the character generator.  One can change
the setting in the CRT controller and it will update the screen contents
accordingly regardless of the font loaded.

The `v_clin' parameter is used by the `vgacon' driver to set the height
of the character cell and then the cursor position within.  Make the
parameter explicit then, by defining a new `vc_cell_height' struct
member of `vc_data', set it instead of `vc_font.height' from `v_clin' in
the VT_RESIZEX ioctl, and then use it throughout the `vgacon' driver
except where actual font data is accessed which as noted above is
independent from the CRTC setting.

This way the framebuffer console driver is free to ignore the `v_clin'
parameter as irrelevant, as it always should have, avoiding any issues
attempts to give the parameter a meaning there could have caused, such
as one that has led to commit 988d0763361b ("vt_ioctl: make VT_RESIZEX
behave like VT_RESIZE"):

 "syzbot is reporting UAF/OOB read at bit_putcs()/soft_cursor() [1][2],
  for vt_resizex() from ioctl(VT_RESIZEX) allows setting font height
  larger than actual font height calculated by con_font_set() from
  ioctl(PIO_FONT). Since fbcon_set_font() from con_font_set() allocates
  minimal amount of memory based on actual font height calculated by
  con_font_set(), use of vt_resizex() can cause UAF/OOB read for font
  data."

The problem first appeared around Linux 2.5.66 which predates our repo
history, but the origin could be identified with the old MIPS/Linux repo
also at: &lt;git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ralf/linux.git&gt;
as commit 9736a3546de7 ("Merge with Linux 2.5.66."), where VT_RESIZEX
code in `vt_ioctl' was updated as follows:

 		if (clin)
-			video_font_height = clin;
+			vc-&gt;vc_font.height = clin;

making the parameter apply to framebuffer devices as well, perhaps due
to the use of "font" in the name of the original `video_font_height'
variable.  Use "cell" in the new struct member then to avoid ambiguity.

Revert the removal of code handling extra VT_RESIZEX ioctl's parameters
beyond those that VT_RESIZE supports, fixing a functional regression
causing `svgatextmode' not to resize the VT anymore.

As a consequence of the reverted change when the video adapter is
reprogrammed from the original say 80x25 text mode using a 9x16
character cell (720x400 pixel resolution) to say 80x37 text mode and the
same character cell (720x592 pixel resolution), the VT geometry does not
get updated and only upper two thirds of the screen are used for the VT,
and the lower part remains blank.  The proportions change according to
text mode geometries chosen.

Revert the change verbatim then, bringing back previous VT resizing.

The only user of tty_ops::chars_in_buffer is tty_chars_in_buffer. And it
considers tty_ops::chars_in_buffer optional. In case it's NULL, zero is
returned. So remove all those chars_in_buffer from tty_ops which return
zero. (Zero means such driver doesn't buffer.)

The only user of tty_ops::chars_in_buffer is tty_chars_in_buffer. And it
considers tty_ops::chars_in_buffer optional. In case it's NULL, zero is
returned. So remove all those chars_in_buffer from tty_ops which return
zero. (Zero means such driver doesn't buffer.)

Line disciplines expect a positive value or zero returned from
tty-&gt;ops-&gt;write_room (invoked by tty_write_room). So make this
assumption explicit by using unsigned int as a return value. Both of
tty-&gt;ops-&gt;write_room and tty_write_room.

<title>tty: cumulate and document tty_struct::ctrl* members</title>

<content type='text'>
Group the ctrl members under a single struct called ctrl. The new struct
contains 'pgrp', 'session', 'pktstatus', and 'packet'. 'pktstatus' and
'packet' used to be bits in a bitfield. The struct also contains the
lock protecting them to share the same cache line.

Note that commit c545b66c6922b (tty: Serialize tcflow() with other tty
flow control changes) added a padding to the original bitfield. It was
for the bitfield to occupy a whole 64b word to avoid interferring stores
on Alpha (cannot we evaporate this arch with weird implications to C
code yet?). But it doesn't work as expected as the padding
(tty_struct::ctrl_unused) is aligned to a 8B boundary too and occupies
some bytes from the next word.

So make it reliable by:
1) setting __aligned of the struct -- that aligns the start, and
2) making 'unsigned long unused[0]' as the last member of the struct --
   pads the end.

Add a kerneldoc comment for this grouped members.
