Sebastian Huber ef8c00bc88 termios: PR2153: New low-level device API
Add a new low-level device API to Termios that passes the TTY structure
to the low-level device functions.  This greatly simplifies the
low-level device drivers since they are no longer forced to derive their
private data from the minor number.

It makes it possible to use the TTY low-level lock in the device driver
low-level functions which is necessary for proper SMP support.  For
example to set the attributes it is often necessary to perform a
read-modify-write operation on a control register used also by interrupt
routines.

A compatibility layer is provided to support device drivers using the
old callback functions so it is not necessary to modify existing device
drivers.
