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.

One point is to have less places where we actually need tty pointer.
The other is that low_latency is bound to buffer processing and
buffers are now in tty_port. So it makes sense to move low_latency to
tty_port too.

Fix call to line discipline receive_buf by synclink drivers.
Dummy flag buffer argument is ignored by N_HDLC line discipline but might
be of insufficient size if accessed by a different line discipline
selected by mistake. flag buffer allocation now matches max size of data
buffer. Unused char_buf buffers are removed.

After commit "TTY: move tty buffers to tty_port", the tty buffers are
not freed in some drivers. This is because tty_port_destructor is not
called whenever a tty_port is freed. This was an assumption I counted
with but was unfortunately untrue. So fix the drivers to fulfil this
assumption.
To be sure, the TTY buffers (and later some stuff) are gone along with
the tty_port, we have to call tty_port_destroy at tear-down places.
This is mostly where the structure containing a tty_port is freed.
This patch does exactly that -- put tty_port_destroy at those places.

In most of the time, the driver needs to check if the cts flow control
is enabled. But now, the driver checks the ASYNC_CTS_FLOW flag manually,
which is not a grace way. So add a new wraper function to make the code
tidy and clean.

This will let us sort out a whole pile of tty related races. The
alternative would be to keep points and refcount the termios objects.
However
1. They are tiny anyway
2. Many devices don't use the stored copies
3. We can remove a pty special case

I sent GregKH this after the pre-requisites. He dropped the pre-requesites
for good reason and unfortunately then applied this patch. Without this
reverted you get random kernel memory corruption which will make bisecting
anything between it and the properly applied patches a complete sod.

This reverts the tty layer change to use per-tty locking, because it's
not correct yet, and fixing it will require some more deep surgery.
The main revert is d29f3ef39b ("tty_lock: Localise the lock"), but
there are several smaller commits that built upon it, they also get
reverted here. The list of reverted commits is:
fde86d3108 - tty: add lockdep annotations
8f6576ad47 - tty: fix ldisc lock inversion trace
d3ca8b64b9 - pty: Fix lock inversion
b1d679afd7 - tty: drop the pty lock during hangup
abcefe5fc3 - tty/amiserial: Add missing argument for tty_unlock()
fd11b42e35 - cris: fix missing tty arg in wait_event_interruptible_tty call
d29f3ef39b - tty_lock: Localise the lock
The revert had a trivial conflict in the 68360serial.c staging driver
that got removed in the meantime.

In each remaining case the tty_lock is associated with a specific tty. This
means we can now lock on a per tty basis. We do need tty_lock_pair() for
the pty case. Uglier but still a step in the right direction.

Checking if tty->index is in bounds is not needed. The tty has the
index set in the initial open. This is done in get_tty_driver. And it
can be only in interval <0,driver->num).
So remove the tests which check exactly this interval. Some are
left untouched as they check against the current backing device count.
(Leaving apart that the check is racy in most of the cases.)

All num, magic and owner are set by alloc_tty_driver. No need to
re-set them on each allocation site.
pti driver sets something different to what it passes to
alloc_tty_driver. It is not a bug, since we don't use the lines
parameter in any way. Anyway this is fixed, and now we do the right
thing.
