Fang Wenqi d4bee0a677 tty_buffer: Fix distinct type warning
CC      drivers/char/tty_buffer.o
drivers/char/tty_buffer.c: In function ‘tty_insert_flip_string_fixed_flag’:
drivers/char/tty_buffer.c:251: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast
drivers/char/tty_buffer.c: In function ‘tty_insert_flip_string_flags’:
drivers/char/tty_buffer.c:288: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast

Fix it by replacing min() with min_t() in tty_insert_flip_string_flags and
					  tty_insert_flip_string_fixed_flag().

Alan Cox 2832fc11f1 USB: tty: Add a function to insert a string of characters with the same flag
The USB drivers often want to insert a series of bytes all with the same
flag set - provide a helper for this case.

Alan Cox d9661adfb8 tty: Keep the default buffering to sub-page units
We allocate during interrupts so while our buffering is normally diced up
small anyway on some hardware at speed we can pressure the VM excessively
for page pairs. We don't really need big buffers to be linear so don't try
so hard.

In order to make this work well we will tidy up excess callers to request_room,
which cannot itself enforce this break up.

Linus Torvalds 514fc01d38 tty: use the new 'flush_delayed_work()' helper to do ldisc flush
This way all flush_to_ldisc work is always done through the workqueues,
and we thus have a single point of serialization.

OGAWA Hirofumi e043e42bdb pty: avoid forcing 'low_latency' tty flag
We really don't want to mark the pty as a low-latency device, because as
Alan points out, the ->write method can be called from an IRQ (ppp?),
and that means we can't use ->low_latency=1 as we take mutexes in the
low_latency case.

So rather than using low_latency to force the written data to be pushed
to the ldisc handling at 'write()' time, just make the reader side (or
the poll function) do the flush when it checks whether there is data to
be had.

This also fixes the problem with lost data in an emacs compile buffer
(bugzilla 13815), and we can thus revert the low_latency pty hack
(commit 3a54297478e6578f96fd54bf4daa1751130aca86: "pty: quickfix for the
pty ENXIO timing problems").

Alan Cox e04957365b tty: split the buffering from tty_io
The two are basically independent chunks of code so lets split them up for
readability and sanity. It also makes the API boundaries much clearer.
