tty/serial: lay the foundations for the next set of reworks
- Stop drivers calling their own flush method indirectly, it obfuscates code and it will change soon anyway - A few more lock_kernel paths temporarily needed in some driver internal waiting code - Remove private put_char method that does a write call for one char - we have that anyway - Most but not yet all of the termios copy under lock fixing (some has other dependencies to follow) - Note a few locking bugs in drivers found in the process - Kill remaining [ab]users of TIOCG/SSOFTCAR in the driver, these must go to fix the termios locking Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Cc: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
