tty/serial: RS485 bindings for device tree

Generic bindings for RS485 feature included in some UARTs.
Those bindings have to be used withing an UART device tree node.
Documentation updated to link to the bindings definition.

* RS485 serial communications
The RTS signal is capable of automatically controlling line direction for
the built-in half-duplex mode.
The properties described hereafter shall be given to a half-duplex capable
UART node.
Required properties:
- rs485-rts-delay: prop-encoded-array <a b> where:
* a is the delay beteween rts signal and beginning of data sent in milliseconds.
it corresponds to the delay before sending data.
* b is the delay between end of data sent and rts signal in milliseconds
it corresponds to the delay after sending data and actual release of the line.
Optional properties:
- linux,rs485-enabled-at-boot-time: empty property telling to enable the rs485
feature at boot time. It can be disabled later with proper ioctl.
- rs485-rx-during-tx: empty property that enables the receiving of data even
whilst sending data.
RS485 example for Atmel USART:
usart0: serial@fff8c000 {
compatible = "atmel,at91sam9260-usart";
reg = <0xfff8c000 0x4000>;
interrupts = <7>;
atmel,use-dma-rx;
atmel,use-dma-tx;
linux,rs485-enabled-at-boot-time;
rs485-rts-delay = <0 200>; // in milliseconds
};

* Atmel Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (USART)
Required properties:
- compatible: Should be "atmel,<chip>-usart"
The compatible <chip> indicated will be the first SoC to support an
additional mode or an USART new feature.
- reg: Should contain registers location and length
- interrupts: Should contain interrupt
Optional properties:
- atmel,use-dma-rx: use of PDC or DMA for receiving data
- atmel,use-dma-tx: use of PDC or DMA for transmitting data

RS485 communications. This data structure is used to set and configure RS485
parameters in the platform data and in ioctls.
The device tree can also provide RS485 boot time parameters (see [2]
for bindings). The driver is in charge of filling this data structure from
the values given by the device tree.
Any driver for devices capable of working both as RS232 and RS485 should
provide at least the following ioctls:
