We had the limit of 255 USB to serial devices on one system for almost
15 years, with no complaints.  But now it's time to move on from these
tiny "baby" systems, and bump the number up to 512, which should last
us a few more years:
	"512 is a nice number" -- Tobias Winter

Note, this is still a static value, and uses up tty core memory with
this many tty devices allocated.  Converting the driver to use
TTY_DRIVER_DYNAMIC_DEV is the next thing to do in order to remove this
limitation.

<title>USB: serial: make minor allocation dynamic</title>

This moves the allocation of minor device numbers from a static array to
be dynamic, using the idr interface.  This means that you could
potentially get "gaps" in a minor number range for a single USB serial
device with multiple ports, but all should still work properly.

We remove the 'minor' field from the usb_serial structure, as it no
longer makes any sense for it (use the field in the usb_serial_port
structure if you really want to know this number), and take the fact
that we were overloading a number in this field to determine if we had
initialized the minor numbers or not, and just use a flag variable
instead.

Note, we still have the limitation of 255 USB to serial devices in the
system, as that is all we are registering with the TTY layer at this
point in time.

<title>USB: serial: ports: add minor and port number</title>

The usb_serial_port structure had the number field, which was the minor
number for the port, which almost no one really cared about.  They
really wanted the number of the port within the device, which you had to
subtract from the minor of the parent usb_serial_device structure.  To
clean this up, provide the real minor number of the port, and the number
of the port within the serial device separately, as these numbers might
not be related in the future.

Bonus is that this cleans up a lot of logic in the drivers, and saves
lines overall.

Fix regression introduced by commit 143d9d9616 ("USB: serial: add
tiocmiwait subdriver operation") which made the ioctl operation return
ENODEV rather than ENOIOCTLCMD when a subdriver TIOCMIWAIT
implementation is missing.

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.
