Merge tag 'tty-4.8-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty

Pull tty/serial driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big tty and serial driver update for 4.8-rc1.

  Lots of good cleanups from Jiri on a number of vt and other tty
  related things, and the normal driver updates.  Full details are in
  the shortlog.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues"
