Register a second tty driver to create loopback devices for
each firewire node. Note that the loopback devices are numbered
from 0; the tty->index is transformed when used to index the
port table.
Remove the hack that previously enabled this.

Pursuant to this review https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/12/500
by Stefan Richter, update the TODO file.
- Clarify purpose of TODO file
- Remove firewire item #4. As discussed in this conversation
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/11/13/564 knowing the AR buffer size
is not a hard requirement. The required rx buffer size can be
determined experimentally.
- Remove firewire item #5. This was a private note for further
experimentation.
- Change firewire item #1. Change suggested header from uapi header
to kernel-only header.
