One or two drivers go poking back into the tty from the termios setting
routine in unsafe ways. We don't need to pass the tty down because the
[ab]users are just using it to get at things they can get at anyway.
This leaves low_latency setting to sort out along with set_ldisc use.

We can use the port mutex for this and also for the hangup path so removing
the problematic use of the hangup mutex in this driver. Fix up the locking
on the various port flags while we are at it.
Ultimately this driver needs to be using tty_port_ helpers which would sort
this out far better.

The riscom8 board uses lock_kernel to protect bits of the port setting
ioctl logic. We can use the port mutex for this as the logic is internal

Jesse's initial patch commit said:
"At panic time (i.e. when oops_in_progress is set) we should try a bit
harder to update the screen and make sure output gets to the VT, since
some drivers are capable of flipping back to it.
So make sure we try to unblank and update the display if called from a
panic context."
I've enhanced this to add a flag to the vc that console layer can set to
indicate they want this behaviour to occur. This also adds support to
fbcon for that flag and adds an fb flag for drivers to indicate they want
to use the support. It enables this for KMS drivers.

This patch is against the 2.6.34 source.
Paraphrased from the 1989 BSD patch by David Borman @ cray.com:
These are the changes needed for the kernel to support
LINEMODE in the server.
There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC.
When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver
are disabled. Input line editing, character echo, and mapping
of signals are all disabled. This allows the telnetd to turn
off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of
what state the user wants the terminal to be in.
New ioctl:
TIOCSIG Generate a signal to processes in the
current process group of the pty.
There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit.
When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit
is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the
next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL
bit set. This allows the process on the server side of the pty
to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then
issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state.
Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet
I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for
any remote terminal protocol, including ssh.
The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989.
For historical reference, a good copy of the relevant files can be found
here:

As Jeff Dike pointed out, the Hayes ESP driver was removed in commit
f53a2ade0b, so these ioctl definitions
should also be removed. This cleans up the remaining arch-specific
locations of this ioctl value.

The mrst_max3110 driver had a set of unsafe wakeup sequences
along the following line:
if (!atomic_read(&foo)) {
atomic_set(&foo, 1);
wake_up(worker_thread);
}
and the worker thread would do
if (atomic_read(&foo)) {
do_work();
atomic_set(&foo, 0);
}
which can result in various missed wakups due to test-then-set races,
as well as due to clear-after-work instead of clear-before-work.
This patch fixes these races by using the proper bit test-and-set operations,
and by doing clear-before-work.

The mrst_max3110.c driver uses an open coded, non atomic variable
to create exclusion between two of its worker threads. More than that,
while the main thread does a proper set-work-clear sequence,
the other thread only does a test, with the result that no actual
exclusion is happening.
this patch replaces this open coded variable with a proper mutex
in addition, the 'lock' spinlock is removed from the per adapter structure,
the lock was only ever initialized but never used

MAX3111 is the SPI/UART IC installed on the MRST SPI Port Card as a serial
debug goal, and the SPI Port Card will be frequently mounted and unmounted
from the main board by developers depending whether debug serial is
required or not.
As the MAX3111 has no subvendor or product id registers available, the patch
will try to access one register to decide if this IC is present or not.
