bdc04e3174 serial: move delta_msr_wait into the tty_port
This is used by various drivers not just serial and can be extracted
as commonality

ebd2c8f6d2 serial: kill off uart_info
We moved this into uart_state, now move the fields out of the separate
structure and kill it off.

52e3632ea6 serial: fix off by one errors
In zs_console_putchar() occurs:

	if (zs_transmit_drain(zport, irq))
		write_zsdata(zport, ch);

However if in zs_transmit_drain() no empty Tx Buffer occurs, limit reaches
-1 => true, and the write still occurs.

This patch changes postfix to prefix decrements in this and similar
functions to prevent similar mistakes in the future.  This decreases the
iterations with one but the chosen loop count was arbitrary anyway.

In sunhv limit reaches -1, not 0, so the test is off by one.

3771359128 serial: Z85C30: avoid a hang at console switch-over
Changes to the generic console support code that happened a while ago
introduced a scenario where the initial console is used in parallel with
the final console during a brief period when switching between the two is
in progress.  During that time a message about the switch-over is printed.

With some combinations of chips, firmware and drivers, such as the Zilog
Z85C30 SCC used with the DECstation, a hang may happen because the
firmware used for the initial console may not expect the state of the chip
after it has been initialised by the driver.  This is not a bug in the
firmware, as some registers it would have to examine are write-only.

This is a workaround for the Z85C30 which reuses the power-management
callback to keep the transmitter of the line associated with the console
enabled.  It reflects the consensus reached in a discussion a while ago.

8b4a40809e zs: move to the serial subsystem
This is a reimplementation of the zs driver for the serial subsystem.  Any
resemblance to the old driver is purely coincidential.  ;-) I do hope I got
the handling of modem lines right -- better do not tackle me about the
issue unless you feel too good...

Any users of the old driver: please note the numbers of the serial lines
have now been swapped, i.e.  ttyS0 <-> ttyS1 and ttyS2 <-> ttyS3.  It has
to do with the modem lines mentioned above; basically the port A in a given
chip has to be initialised before the port B if you want to use the latter
as the serial console (which is usually the case), as operations on modem
lines of the serial line associated with the port B access both ports (see
the comment at the top of the driver for the details of wiring used).
Please update your scripts.

This is also the reason each SCC now requests an IRQ once only (as seen in
"/proc/interrupts") -- the handler takes care of both ports at once as the
line associated with the port B has to take status update interrupts from
both ports (and yet the line of the port A takes its own for itself too).
The old driver never got it right...
