Merge tag 'tty-3.11-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty

Pull tty/serial updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big TTY / Serial driver merge for 3.11-rc1.

  It's not all that big, nothing major changed in the tty api, which is
  a nice change, just a number of serial driver fixes and updates and
  new drivers, along with some n_tty fixes to help resolve some reported
  issues.

  All of these have been in the linux-next releases for a while, with
  the exception of the last revert patch, which was reported this past
  weekend by two different people as being needed."

-Stallion Multiport Serial Driver Readme
----------------------------------------
-
-Copyright (C) 1994-1999,  Stallion Technologies.
-
-Version:   5.5.1
-Date:      28MAR99
-
-
-
-1. INTRODUCTION
-
-There are two drivers that work with the different families of Stallion
-multiport serial boards. One is for the Stallion smart boards - that is
-EasyIO, EasyConnection 8/32 and EasyConnection 8/64-PCI, the other for
-the true Stallion intelligent multiport boards - EasyConnection 8/64
-(ISA, EISA), EasyConnection/RA-PCI, ONboard and Brumby.
-
-If you are using any of the Stallion intelligent multiport boards (Brumby,
-ONboard, EasyConnection 8/64 (ISA, EISA), EasyConnection/RA-PCI) with
-Linux you will need to get the driver utility package.  This contains a
-firmware loader and the firmware images necessary to make the devices operate.
-
-The Stallion Technologies ftp site, ftp.stallion.com, will always have
-the latest version of the driver utility package.
-
-ftp://ftp.stallion.com/drivers/ata5/Linux/ata-linux-550.tar.gz
-
-As of the printing of this document the latest version of the driver
-utility package is 5.5.0. If a later version is now available then you
-should use the latest version.
-
-If you are using the EasyIO, EasyConnection 8/32 or EasyConnection 8/64-PCI
-boards then you don't need this package, although it does have a serial stats
-display program.
-
-If you require DIP switch settings, or EISA configuration files, or any
-other information related to Stallion boards then have a look at Stallion's
-web pages at http://www.stallion.com.
-
-
-
-2. INSTALLATION
-
-The drivers can be used as loadable modules or compiled into the kernel.
-You can choose which when doing a "config" on the kernel.
-
-All ISA, and EISA boards that you want to use need to be configured into
-the driver(s). All PCI boards will be automatically detected when you load
-the driver - so they do not need to be entered into the driver(s)
-configuration structure. Note that kernel PCI support is required to use PCI
-boards.
-
-There are two methods of configuring ISA and EISA boards into the drivers.
-If using the driver as a loadable module then the simplest method is to pass
-the driver configuration as module arguments. The other method is to modify
-the driver source to add configuration lines for each board in use.
-
-If you have pre-built Stallion driver modules then the module argument
-configuration method should be used. A lot of Linux distributions come with
-pre-built driver modules in /lib/modules/X.Y.Z/misc for the kernel in use.
-That makes things pretty simple to get going.
-
-
-2.1 MODULE DRIVER CONFIGURATION:
-
-The simplest configuration for modules is to use the module load arguments
-to configure any ISA or EISA boards. PCI boards are automatically
-detected, so do not need any additional configuration at all.
-
-If using EasyIO, EasyConnection 8/32 ISA, or EasyConnection 8/63-PCI
-boards then use the "stallion" driver module, Otherwise if you are using
-an EasyConnection 8/64 ISA or EISA, EasyConnection/RA-PCI, ONboard,
-Brumby or original Stallion board then use the "istallion" driver module.
-
-Typically to load up the smart board driver use:
-
-    modprobe stallion
-
-This will load the EasyIO and EasyConnection 8/32 driver. It will output a
-message to say that it loaded and print the driver version number. It will
-also print out whether it found the configured boards or not. These messages
-may not appear on the console, but typically are always logged to
-/var/adm/messages or /var/log/syslog files - depending on how the klogd and
-syslogd daemons are setup on your system.
-
-To load the intelligent board driver use:
-
-    modprobe istallion
-
-It will output similar messages to the smart board driver.
-
-If not using an auto-detectable board type (that is a PCI board) then you
-will also need to supply command line arguments to the modprobe command
-when loading the driver. The general form of the configuration argument is
-
-    board?=<name>[,<ioaddr>[,<addr>][,<irq>]]
-
-where:
-
-    board?  -- specifies the arbitrary board number of this board,
-               can be in the range 0 to 3.
-
-    name    -- textual name of this board. The board name is the common
-               board name, or any "shortened" version of that. The board
-               type number may also be used here.
-
-    ioaddr  -- specifies the I/O address of this board. This argument is
-               optional, but should generally be specified.
-
-    addr    -- optional second address argument. Some board types require
-               a second I/O address, some require a memory address. The
-               exact meaning of this argument depends on the board type.
-
-    irq     -- optional IRQ line used by this board.
-
-Up to 4 board configuration arguments can be specified on the load line.
-Here is some examples:
-
-    modprobe stallion board0=easyio,0x2a0,5
-
-This configures an EasyIO board as board 0 at I/O address 0x2a0 and IRQ 5.
-
-    modprobe istallion board3=ec8/64,0x2c0,0xcc000
-
-This configures an EasyConnection 8/64 ISA as board 3 at I/O address 0x2c0 at
-memory address 0xcc000.
-
-    modprobe stallion board1=ec8/32-at,0x2a0,0x280,10
-
-This configures an EasyConnection 8/32 ISA board at primary I/O address 0x2a0,
-secondary address 0x280 and IRQ 10.
-
-You will probably want to enter this module load and configuration information
-into your system startup scripts so that the drivers are loaded and configured
-on each system boot. Typically configuration files are put in the
-/etc/modprobe.d/ directory.
-
-
-2.2 STATIC DRIVER CONFIGURATION:
-
-For static driver configuration you need to modify the driver source code.
-Entering ISA and EISA boards into the driver(s) configuration structure
-involves editing the driver(s) source file. It's pretty easy if you follow
-the instructions below. Both drivers can support up to 4 boards. The smart
-card driver (the stallion.c driver) supports any combination of EasyIO and
-EasyConnection 8/32 boards (up to a total of 4). The intelligent driver
-supports any combination of ONboards, Brumbys, Stallions and EasyConnection
-8/64 (ISA and EISA) boards (up to a total of 4).
-
-To set up the driver(s) for the boards that you want to use you need to
-edit the appropriate driver file and add configuration entries.
-
-If using EasyIO or EasyConnection 8/32 ISA boards,
-   In drivers/char/stallion.c:
-      - find the definition of the stl_brdconf array (of structures)
-        near the top of the file
-      - modify this to match the boards you are going to install
-	(the comments before this structure should help)
-      - save and exit
-
-If using ONboard, Brumby, Stallion or EasyConnection 8/64 (ISA or EISA)
-boards,
-   In drivers/char/istallion.c:
-      - find the definition of the stli_brdconf array (of structures)
-        near the top of the file
-      - modify this to match the boards you are going to install
-	(the comments before this structure should help)
-      - save and exit
-
-Once you have set up the board configurations then you are ready to build
-the kernel or modules.
-
-When the new kernel is booted, or the loadable module loaded then the
-driver will emit some kernel trace messages about whether the configured
-boards were detected or not. Depending on how your system logger is set
-up these may come out on the console, or just be logged to
-/var/adm/messages or /var/log/syslog. You should check the messages to
-confirm that all is well.
-
-
-2.3 SHARING INTERRUPTS
-
-It is possible to share interrupts between multiple EasyIO and
-EasyConnection 8/32 boards in an EISA system. To do this you must be using
-static driver configuration, modifying the driver source code to add driver
-configuration. Then a couple of extra things are required:
-
-1. When entering the board resources into the stallion.c file you need to
-   mark the boards as using level triggered interrupts. Do this by replacing
-   the "0" entry at field position 6 (the last field) in the board
-   configuration structure with a "1". (This is the structure that defines
-   the board type, I/O locations, etc. for each board). All boards that are
-   sharing an interrupt must be set this way, and each board should have the
-   same interrupt number specified here as well. Now build the module or
-   kernel as you would normally.
-
-2. When physically installing the boards into the system you must enter
-   the system EISA configuration utility. You will need to install the EISA
-   configuration files for *all* the EasyIO and EasyConnection 8/32 boards
-   that are sharing interrupts. The Stallion EasyIO and EasyConnection 8/32
-   EISA configuration files required are supplied by Stallion Technologies
-   on the EASY Utilities floppy diskette (usually supplied in the box with
-   the board when purchased. If not, you can pick it up from Stallion's FTP
-   site, ftp.stallion.com). You will need to edit the board resources to
-   choose level triggered interrupts, and make sure to set each board's
-   interrupt to the same IRQ number.
-
-You must complete both the above steps for this to work. When you reboot
-or load the driver your EasyIO and EasyConnection 8/32 boards will be
-sharing interrupts.
-
-
-2.4 USING HIGH SHARED MEMORY
-
-The EasyConnection 8/64-EI, ONboard and Stallion boards are capable of
-using shared memory addresses above the usual 640K - 1Mb range. The ONboard
-ISA and the Stallion boards can be programmed to use memory addresses up to
-16Mb (the ISA bus addressing limit), and the EasyConnection 8/64-EI and
-ONboard/E can be programmed for memory addresses up to 4Gb (the EISA bus
-addressing limit).
-
-The higher than 1Mb memory addresses are fully supported by this driver.
-Just enter the address as you normally would for a lower than 1Mb address
-(in the driver's board configuration structure).
-
-
-
-2.5 TROUBLE SHOOTING
-
-If a board is not found by the driver but is actually in the system then the
-most likely problem is that the I/O address is wrong. Change the module load
-argument for the loadable module form. Or change it in the driver stallion.c
-or istallion.c configuration structure and rebuild the kernel or modules, or
-change it on the board.
-
-On EasyIO and EasyConnection 8/32 boards the IRQ is software programmable, so
-if there is a conflict you may need to change the IRQ used for a board. There
-are no interrupts to worry about for ONboard, Brumby or EasyConnection 8/64
-(ISA and EISA) boards. The memory region on EasyConnection 8/64 and
-ONboard boards is software programmable, but not on the Brumby boards.
-
-
-
-3. USING THE DRIVERS
-
-3.1 INTELLIGENT DRIVER OPERATION
-
-The intelligent boards also need to have their "firmware" code downloaded
-to them. This is done via a user level application supplied in the driver
-utility package called "stlload". Compile this program wherever you dropped
-the package files, by typing "make". In its simplest form you can then type
-
-    ./stlload -i cdk.sys
-
-in this directory and that will download board 0 (assuming board 0 is an
-EasyConnection 8/64 or EasyConnection/RA board). To download to an
-ONboard, Brumby or Stallion do:
-
-    ./stlload -i 2681.sys
-
-Normally you would want all boards to be downloaded as part of the standard
-system startup. To achieve this, add one of the lines above into the
-/etc/rc.d/rc.S or /etc/rc.d/rc.serial file. To download each board just add
-the "-b <brd-number>" option to the line. You will need to download code for
-every board. You should probably move the stlload program into a system
-directory, such as /usr/sbin. Also, the default location of the cdk.sys image
-file in the stlload down-loader is /usr/lib/stallion. Create that directory
-and put the cdk.sys and 2681.sys files in it. (It's a convenient place to put
-them anyway). As an example your /etc/rc.d/rc.S file might have the
-following lines added to it (if you had 3 boards):
-
-    /usr/sbin/stlload -b 0 -i /usr/lib/stallion/cdk.sys
-    /usr/sbin/stlload -b 1 -i /usr/lib/stallion/2681.sys
-    /usr/sbin/stlload -b 2 -i /usr/lib/stallion/2681.sys
-
-The image files cdk.sys and 2681.sys are specific to the board types. The
-cdk.sys will only function correctly on an EasyConnection 8/64 board. Similarly
-the 2681.sys image fill only operate on ONboard, Brumby and Stallion boards.
-If you load the wrong image file into a board it will fail to start up, and
-of course the ports will not be operational!
-
-If you are using the modularized version of the driver you might want to put
-the modprobe calls in the startup script as well (before the download lines
-obviously).
-
-
-3.2 USING THE SERIAL PORTS
-
-Once the driver is installed you will need to setup some device nodes to
-access the serial ports. The simplest method is to use the /dev/MAKEDEV program.
-It will automatically create device entries for Stallion boards. This will
-create the normal serial port devices as /dev/ttyE# where# is the port number
-starting from 0. A bank of 64 minor device numbers is allocated to each board,
-so the first port on the second board is port 64,etc. A set of callout type
-devices may also be created. They are created as the devices /dev/cue# where #
-is the same as for the ttyE devices.
-
-For the most part the Stallion driver tries to emulate the standard PC system
-COM ports and the standard Linux serial driver. The idea is that you should
-be able to use Stallion board ports and COM ports interchangeably without
-modifying anything but the device name. Anything that doesn't work like that
-should be considered a bug in this driver!
-
-If you look at the driver code you will notice that it is fairly closely
-based on the Linux serial driver (linux/drivers/char/serial.c). This is
-intentional, obviously this is the easiest way to emulate its behavior!
-
-Since this driver tries to emulate the standard serial ports as much as
-possible, most system utilities should work as they do for the standard
-COM ports. Most importantly "stty" works as expected and "setserial" can
-also be used (excepting the ability to auto-configure the I/O and IRQ
-addresses of boards). Higher baud rates are supported in the usual fashion
-through setserial or using the CBAUDEX extensions. Note that the EasyIO and
-EasyConnection (all types) support at least 57600 and 115200 baud. The newer
-EasyConnection XP modules and new EasyIO boards support 230400 and 460800
-baud as well. The older boards including ONboard and Brumby support a
-maximum baud rate of 38400.
-
-If you are unfamiliar with how to use serial ports, then get the Serial-HOWTO
-by Greg Hankins. It will explain everything you need to know!
-
-
-
-4. NOTES
-
-You can use both drivers at once if you have a mix of board types installed
-in a system. However to do this you will need to change the major numbers
-used by one of the drivers. Currently both drivers use major numbers 24, 25
-and 28 for their devices. Change one driver to use some other major numbers,
-and then modify the mkdevnods script to make device nodes based on those new
-major numbers. For example, you could change the istallion.c driver to use
-major numbers 60, 61 and 62. You will also need to create device nodes with
-different names for the ports, for example ttyF# and cuf#.
-
-The original Stallion board is no longer supported by Stallion Technologies.
-Although it is known to work with the istallion driver.
-
-Finding a free physical memory address range can be a problem. The older
-boards like the Stallion and ONboard need large areas (64K or even 128K), so
-they can be very difficult to get into a system. If you have 16 Mb of RAM
-then you have no choice but to put them somewhere in the 640K -> 1Mb range.
-ONboards require 64K, so typically 0xd0000 is good, or 0xe0000 on some
-systems. If you have an original Stallion board, "V4.0" or Rev.O, then you
-need a 64K memory address space, so again 0xd0000 and 0xe0000 are good.
-Older Stallion boards are a much bigger problem. They need 128K of address
-space and must be on a 128K boundary. If you don't have a VGA card then
-0xc0000 might be usable - there is really no other place you can put them
-below 1Mb.
-
-Both the ONboard and old Stallion boards can use higher memory addresses as
-well, but you must have less than 16Mb of RAM to be able to use them. Usual
-high memory addresses used include 0xec0000 and 0xf00000.
-
-The Brumby boards only require 16Kb of address space, so you can usually
-squeeze them in somewhere. Common addresses are 0xc8000, 0xcc000, or in
-the 0xd0000 range. EasyConnection 8/64 boards are even better, they only
-require 4Kb of address space, again usually 0xc8000, 0xcc000 or 0xd0000
-are good.
-
-If you are using an EasyConnection 8/64-EI or ONboard/E then usually the
-0xd0000 or 0xe0000 ranges are the best options below 1Mb. If neither of
-them can be used then the high memory support to use the really high address
-ranges is the best option. Typically the 2Gb range is convenient for them,
-and gets them well out of the way.
-
-The ports of the EasyIO-8M board do not have DCD or DTR signals. So these
-ports cannot be used as real modem devices. Generally, when using these
-ports you should only use the cueX devices.
-
-The driver utility package contains a couple of very useful programs. One
