tty.h is long enough already. And I am slowly adding kernel-doc
documentation, so it grows to unmaintainable long mess. To avoid this,
split tty.h further into tty_port.h and move there tty_port-related
declarations and function prototypes (those implemented in tty_port.c).

tty.h is large enough currently. And I am slowly adding kernel-doc
documentation, so it grows to unmaintainable long mess. To avoid this,
split tty.h further into tty_buffer.h and move there tty_buffer-related
declarations and function prototypes.
Note that many of the tty_buffer.c function prototypes reside now in
tty_flip.h. But we cannot move struct tty_buffer & friends because:
* tty_insert_flip_char() in tty_flip.h needs both struct tty_port and
struct tty_buffer defined.
* struct tty_port in tty_port.h needs struct tty_buffer defined.
So if we moved struct tty_buffer to tty_flip.h too, tty_flip.h would
need tty_port.h and that would need tty_flip.h (to have tty_buffer)
again. Hence we introduce new header tty_buffer.h here to break this
circular dependency.

Many tty drivers contain code to compute bits count depending on termios
cflags. So extract this code from serial core to two separate tty helper
functions:
* tty_get_char_size -- only size of a character, without flags,
* tty_get_frame_size -- complete size of a frame including flags.
In the next patch, calls to these new functions replace many copies of
this code.
Note that we accept only cflag as a parameter. That's because some
callers like pch_uart_startup or sunsab_console_setup don't have at hand
termios which we could pass around.

Group the ctrl members under a single struct called ctrl. The new struct
contains 'pgrp', 'session', 'pktstatus', and 'packet'. 'pktstatus' and
'packet' used to be bits in a bitfield. The struct also contains the
lock protecting them to share the same cache line.
Note that commit c545b66c69 (tty: Serialize tcflow() with other tty
flow control changes) added a padding to the original bitfield. It was
for the bitfield to occupy a whole 64b word to avoid interferring stores
on Alpha (cannot we evaporate this arch with weird implications to C
code yet?). But it doesn't work as expected as the padding
(tty_struct::ctrl_unused) is aligned to a 8B boundary too and occupies
some bytes from the next word.
So make it reliable by:
1) setting __aligned of the struct -- that aligns the start, and
2) making 'unsigned long unused[0]' as the last member of the struct --
pads the end.
Add a kerneldoc comment for this grouped members.

Group the flow flags under a single struct called flow. The new struct
contains 'stopped' and 'tco_stopped' bools which used to be bits in a
bitfield. The struct also contains the lock protecting them to
potentially share the same cache line.

flow control changes) added a padding to the original bitfield. It was
for the bitfield to occupy a whole 64b word to avoid interferring stores

2) making 'unsigned long unused[0]' as the last member of the struct --
pads the end.
This is also the perfect time to start the documentation of tty_struct
where all this lives. So we start by documenting what these bools
actually serve for. And why we do all the alignment dances. Only the few
up-to-date information from the Theodore's comment made it into this new
Kerneldoc comment.

Commit 30004ac9c0 ("tty: add tty_struct->dev pointer to corresponding
device instance") added a struct device pointer field to struct
tty_struct which was populated with the corresponding tty class device
during initialisation.
Unfortunately, not all ttys have a class device (e.g. pseudoterminals
and serdev) in which case the device pointer will be set to NULL,
something which have bit driver authors over the years.
In retrospect perhaps this field should never have been added, but let's
at least document the current behaviour.
