Pavan Savoy 73f12e8d3d drivers: misc: ti-st: fix review comments
Based on comments from Jiri Slaby, drop the register
storage specifier, remove the unused code, cleanup
the const to non-const type casting.
Also make the line discipline ops structure static, since
its a singleton, unmodified structure which need not be
in heap.

Pavan Savoy a0cc2f3b51 staging: ti-st: move TI_ST from staging to misc/
move the 3 source files st_core.c, st_kim.c and st_ll.c
from staging to drivers/misc/.

Texas Instrument's WiLink 7 chipset packs wireless technologies like
Bluetooth, FM, GPS and WLAN into a single die.
Among these the Bluetooth, FM Rx/Tx and GPS are interfaced to a apps processor
over a single UART.

This line discipline driver allows various protocol drivers such as Bluetooth
BlueZ driver, FM V4L2 driver and GPS simple character device driver
to communicate with its relevant core in the chip.

Each protocol or technologies use a logical channel to communicate with chip.
Bluetooth uses the HCI-H4 [channels 1-4], FM uses a CH-8 and
GPS a CH-9 protocol. The driver also constitutes the TI HCI-LL Power
Management protocol which use channels 30-33.
