Peter Hurley fdfb719e93 tty: Remove chars_in_buffer() line discipline method
The chars_in_buffer() line discipline method serves no functional
purpose, other than as a (dubious) debugging aid for mostly bit-rotting
drivers. Despite being documented as an optional method, every caller
is unconditionally executed (although conditionally compiled).
Furthermore, direct tty->ldisc access without an ldisc ref is unsafe.
Lastly, N_TTY's chars_in_buffer() has warned of removal since 3.12.

The Cyclades-Z must have firmware loaded onto the card before it will
operate.  This operation should be performed during system startup,

The firmware, loader program and the latest device driver code are
available from Cyclades at
    ftp://ftp.cyclades.com/pub/cyclades/cyclades-z/linux/
