Linus Torvalds 96b9b1c956 TTY/Serial patches for 4.6-rc1
Here's the big tty/serial driver pull request for 4.6-rc1.
 
 Lots of changes in here, Peter has been on a tear again, with lots of
 refactoring and bugs fixes, many thanks to the great work he has been
 doing.  Lots of driver updates and fixes as well, full details in the
 shortlog.
 
 All have been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues.
