The request for an IRQ handler must be done after whole configuration. This
was not the case for this driver which request the IRQ in the middle of
the configuration. Sometimes, it happens that something is not completely
configured, we recieve an interrupt thus we stumble into troubles in the
IRQ handler.

In some conditions (echo or particular sequence of special
characters), on buffer push, the tty layer calls the write operation
while we are holding the spinlock. This means deadlock within the same
process on kernels version < 3.12. It seems not a problem on recent
kernel, but the patch still valid as locking optimization.
The protected variables by the spinlock are: xmit_buf, nb_bytes,
pointer_read and pointer_write. So, this patch reduces the locked area
in the IRQ handler only to these variables. Most of the code inside the
locked area in the IRQ handler is not protected elsewhere; it means
that it is not protected at all.

Delete successive tests to the same location. The code tested the result
of a previous allocation, that itself was already tested. It is changed to
test the result of the most recent allocation.

The option allows you to remove TTY and compile without errors. This
saves space on systems that won't support TTY interfaces anyway.
bloat-o-meter output is below.
The bulk of this patch consists of Kconfig changes adding "depends on
TTY" to various serial devices and similar drivers that require the TTY
layer. Ideally, these dependencies would occur on a common intermediate
symbol such as SERIO, but most drivers "select SERIO" rather than
"depends on SERIO", and "select" does not respect dependencies.
bloat-o-meter output comparing our previous minimal to new minimal by
removing TTY. The list is filtered to not show removed entries with awk
'$3 != "-"' as the list was very long.

There was a bug in the code when managing a GE IP-OCTAL-485 board. The RX would
be enabled but we have a wrong state in the rx_enable flag.
Then, if the user changes the terminal settings, RX would not be enabled again.

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use
tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many
call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more
tty_port_tty_get in those paths.
Now, the one where most of tty_port_tty_get gets removed:
tty_flip_buffer_push.
IOW we also closed all the races in drivers not using tty_port_tty_get
at all yet.
Also we move tty_flip_buffer_push declaration from include/linux/tty.h
to include/linux/tty_flip.h to all others while we are changing it
anyway.

Thus, we don't enable RX when a termios setup has been called, as it could be
disabled previously.
As the control registers (Rx, Tx flags specifically) cannot be read from the
device, we keep this info in rx_enable.

Due to the IRQ processing, we can generate another IRQ that can come before we
end the previous one, so we lost it. E.g. when transmitting a character.
To allow the processing in SMP machines, we ack the IRQ at the beginning of the
IRQ handler.

RX is enabled when the tty port is open, so no need to do it in initialization
time: it can allow the device to receive characters but no TTY client is
listening to them.
It produced an infinite number of IRQ as RxFIFO is not read to clear that
IRQ in the device, so it is still pending.

Trying to setup the pppd server to use ipoctal's serial ports, it says the ports
are busy the first time. If the operation is repeated, a kernel bug due to a
dereference of a NULL pointer appears.
Removing the one-access-only setup from the driver, removes this kernel bug.

In order to transmit data, the driver enables Tx and sleeps until
*board_write is set to 1 by the interrupt handler.
It can happen, though, that the data is sent even before the process
is asleep. In this case *board_write must be set to 1 anyway,
otherwise we will be waiting for a condition that will never be true.

Fixed up some trivial conflicts in the staging tree, due to the fwserial
driver having come in both ways (but fixed up a bit in the serial tree),
and the ioctl handling in the dgrp driver having been done slightly
differently (staging tree got that one right, and removed both
TIOCGSOFTCAR and TIOCSSOFTCAR).
