This ioctl does nothing to justify an _IOC_READ or _IOC_WRITE flag
because it doesn't copy anything from/to userspace to access the
argument.

When opening the slave end of a PTY, it is not possible for userspace to
safely ensure that /dev/pts/$num is actually a slave (in cases where the
mount namespace in which devpts was mounted is controlled by an
untrusted process). In addition, there are several unresolvable
race conditions if userspace were to attempt to detect attacks through
stat(2) and other similar methods [in addition it is not clear how
userspace could detect attacks involving FUSE].
Resolve this by providing an interface for userpace to safely open the
"peer" end of a PTY file descriptor by using the dentry cached by
devpts. Since it is not possible to have an open master PTY without
having its slave exposed in /dev/pts this interface is safe. This
interface currently does not provide a way to get the master pty (since
it is not clear whether such an interface is safe or even useful).

Commit: e676253b19b2d269cccf67fdb1592120a0cd0676 (serial/8250: Add
support for RS485 IOCTLs), adds support for RS485 ioctls for 825_core on
all the archs. Unfortunaltely the definition of TIOCSRS485 and
TIOCGRS485 was missing on the ioctls.h file

Having received another series of whitespace patches I decided to do this
once and for all rather than dealing with this kind of patches trickling
in forever.

This patch defines new ioctl codes TIOCGPKT, TIOCGPTLCK,
TIOCGEXCL for fetching pty's packet mode and locking state,
and exclusive mode of tty.
[ No real handlers for the codes though, this will be
addressed in another patch for easier review and
bisectability ]
