This reverts commit b1c43f82c5.
It was broken in so many ways, and results in random odd pty issues.
It re-introduced the buggy schedule_work() in flush_to_ldisc() that can
cause endless work-loops (see commit a5660b41af: "tty: fix endless
work loop when the buffer fills up").
It also used an "unsigned int" return value fo the ->receive_buf()
function, but then made multiple functions return a negative error code,
and didn't actually check for the error in the caller.
And it didn't actually work at all. BenH bisected down odd tty behavior
to it:
"It looks like the patch is causing some major malfunctions of the X
server for me, possibly related to PTYs. For example, cat'ing a
large file in a gnome terminal hangs the kernel for -minutes- in a
loop of what looks like flush_to_ldisc/workqueue code, (some ftrace
data in the quoted bits further down).
...
Some more data: It -looks- like what happens is that the
flush_to_ldisc work queue entry constantly re-queues itself (because
the PTY is full ?) and the workqueue thread will basically loop
forver calling it without ever scheduling, thus starving the consumer
process that could have emptied the PTY."
which is pretty much exactly the problem we fixed in a5660b41af.
Milton Miller pointed out the 'unsigned int' issue.

Architectures that implement their own show_mem() function did not pass
the filter argument to show_free_areas() to appropriately avoid emitting
the state of nodes that are disallowed in the current context. This patch
now passes the filter argument to show_free_areas() so those nodes are now
avoided.
This patch also removes the show_free_areas() wrapper around
__show_free_areas() and converts existing callers to pass an empty filter.
ia64 emits additional information for each node, so skip_free_areas_zone()
must be made global to filter disallowed nodes and it is converted to use
a nid argument rather than a zone for this use case.

When a break is received, Tegra's UART apparently fills the FIFO with
0 bytes. These must be drained so that they aren't interpreted as actual
data received. This allows e.g. MAGIC_SYSRQ to work on Tegra's UARTs.

Tegra's UART is currently auto-detected as PORT_XSCALE due to register
bit UART_IER.UUE being writable. However, the Tegra documentation states
that this register bit is reserved. Hence, we should not program it.
Instead, the documentation specifies that the UART is 16550 compatible.
However, Tegra does need register bit UART_IER.RTOIE set, which is not
enabled by any 16550 port type. This was not noticed before, since
PORT_XSCALE enables CAP_UUE, which conflates both UUE and RTOIE bit
programming.
This change defines PORT_TEGRA that doesn't set UART_CAP_UUE, but does
set UART_CAP_RTOIE, which is a new capability indicating that the RTOIE
bit needs to be enabled.

Commit b826291c, "drivercore/dt: add a match table pointer to struct
device" added an of_match pointer to struct device to cache the
of_match_table entry discovered at driver match time. This was unsafe
because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver. If
two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the
same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get
overwritten.
This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to
call of_match_device() directly instead.

The n_tracerouter and n_tracesink line discpline drivers use the
Linux tty line discpline framework to route trace data coming
from a tty port (say UART for example) to the trace sink line
discipline driver and to another tty port(say USB). Those
these two line discipline drivers can be used together,
independently from pti.c, they are part of the original
implementation solution of the MIPI P1149.7, compact JTAG, PTI
solution for Intel mobile platforms starting with the
Medfield platform.

Add support to the 8250 PCI serial driver for the Digi/IBM PCIe 2-port Async EIA-232 Adapter.
Oxford Semiconductor produces a 2/4/8 port UART (OXPCIe952/OXPCIe954/OXPCIe958) chip
called the Tornado, that can be used to create a very simple serial board product.
The kernel sources currently have just 2 vendors using this chip, which is Oxford and Mainpipe.
This new Digi/IBM serial product now uses it as well.
Rather than create a long running comment of vendors using the chip, the one changed comment
in the patch below now just lists "For Oxford Semiconductor Tornado based devices" to be a
more generic comment for all vendors that end up using the Oxford Tornado chip.
