Fix regression introduced by commit 818f60365a29 ("USB: serial: add
memory flags to usb_serial_generic_write_start"), which incorrectly used
GFP_KERNEL in write(), which must not not sleep.

Fix race in generic write implementation, which could lead to
temporarily degraded throughput.

The current generic write implementation introduced by commit
27c7acf22047 ("USB: serial: reimplement generic fifo-based writes") has
always had this bug, although it's fairly hard to trigger and the
consequences are not likely to be noticed.

Specifically, a write() on one CPU while the completion handler is
running on another could result in only one of the two write urbs being
utilised to empty the remainder of the write fifo (unless there is a
second write() that doesn't race during that time).

Export usb_serial_generic_write_start which is needed when implementing
a custom resume function while still relying on the generic write
implementation.

Add memory-flags parameter to usb_serial_generic_write_start which is
called from write, resume and completion handler, all with different
allocation requirements.

Note that by using the memory flag to determine when called from the
completion handler, everything will work as before even if the
completion handler is run with interrupts enabled (as suggested).

The DCD pin of the serial port can receive a PPS signal. By calling
the port line discipline dcd handle, this patch allow to monitor PPS
through USB serial devices.

However the performance aren't as good as the uart drivers, so
document this point too.

Since commit 31ca020b ("TTY: wake up processes last at hangup") there no
longer any need to check the hupping flag in the generic tiocmiwait
implementation, so remove it.

Add generic wait_until_sent implementation which polls for empty
hardware buffers using the new port-operation tx_empty.

The generic implementation will be used for all sub-drivers that
implement tx_empty but does not define wait_until_sent.

Add generic get_icount implementation that subdrivers relying on the
port interrupt counters can use.
