Daniel Mack f324edc85e console: make blank timeout value a boot option
The console blank timer is currently hardcoded to 10*60 seconds which
might be annoying on systems with no input devices attached to wake up the
console again.  Especially during development, disabling the screen saver
can be handy - for example when debugging the root fs mount mechanism or
other scenarios where no userspace program could be started to do that at
runtime from userspace.

This patch defines a core_param for the variable in charge which allows
users to entirely disable the blank feature at boot time by setting it 0.
The value can still be overwritten at runtime using the standard ioctl
call - this just allows to conditionally change the default.

In moxa.c there are 32 minor numbers reserved for each device. The
number of ports actually available per device is stored in
moxa_board_conf->numPorts. This number is not considered in moxa_open().
Opening a port that is not available results in a kernel oops.
This patch adds a test to moxa_open() that prevents opening unavailable
ports.

Alan Cox c65c9bc3ef tty: rewrite the ldisc locking
There are several pretty much unfixable races in the old ldisc code, especially
with respect to pty behaviour and also to hangup. It's easier to rewrite the
code than simply try and patch it up.

This patch
- splits the ldisc from the tty (so we will be able to refcount it more cleanly
  later)
- introduces a mutex lock for ldisc changing on an active device
- fixes the complete mess that hangup caused
- implements hopefully correct setldisc/close/hangup locking

There are still some problems around pty pairs that have always been there but
at least it is now possible to understand the code and fix further problems.

This fixes the following known bugs
- hang up can leak ldisc references
- hang up may not call open/close on ldisc in a matched way
- pty/tty pairs can deadlock during an ldisc change
- reading the ldisc proc files can cause every ldisc to be loaded

and probably a few other of the mysterious ldisc race reports.

I'm sure it also adds the odd new one.

Alan Cox 5f0878acba tty: Fix oops when scanning the polling list for kgdb
Costantino Leandro found a bug in tty_find_polling_driver and provided a
patch that fixed the crash but not the underlying bug. This fixes the
underlying bug where the list walk corrupts the values it is using on a
match but then reuses them if the open fails.

Alan Cox 38db89799b tty: throttling race fix
The tty throttling code can race due to the lock drops. It takes very high
loads but this has been observed and verified by Rob Duncan.

The basic problem is that on an SMP box we can go

	CPU #1				CPU #2
	need to throttle ?
	suppose we should		buffer space cleared
					are we throttled
					yes ? - unthrottle
	call throttle method

This changeet take the termios lock to protect against this. The termios
lock isn't the initial obvious candidate but many implementations of throttle
methods already need to poke around their own termios structures (and nobody
really locks them against a racing change of flow control).

This does mean that anyone who is setting tty->low_latency = 1 and then
calling tty_flip_buffer_push from their unthrottle method is going to end up
collapsing in a pile of locks. However we've removed all the known bogus
users of low_latency = 1 and such use isn't safe anyway for other reasons so
catching it would be an improvement.

Jiri Slaby 963118eef9 tty: cyclades, fix nports handling
Set up ports right after FW load so that we won't allocate maximal
(64) ports when we use few.

Also remove reading of nports in irq context, since we know it from
initialisation now.

This also fixes a tty ports unregistration on some fail paths and for
Ze which registered 64 and unregistered real port count.

level of 128 bytes used in DMA mode creates excessive latency
when operating at low data rates. PIO mode is selected when user

Some drivers implement this internally, others miss it out. Push the
behaviour into the core code as that way everyone will do it consistently.

Update the dtr rts method to raise or lower depending upon flags. Having a
single method in this style fits most of the implementations more cleanly than
two funtions.

We need this in place before we tackle the USB side
