Pull driver core update from Greg KH: "Here's the set of driver core patches for 3.19-rc1. They are dominated by the removal of the .owner field in platform drivers. They touch a lot of files, but they are "simple" changes, just removing a line in a structure. Other than that, a few minor driver core and debugfs changes. There are some ath9k patches coming in through this tree that have been acked by the wireless maintainers as they relied on the debugfs changes.

serial: Refactor uart_flush_buffer() from uart_close()

2014-11-06T02:53:54Z

In the context of the final tty & port close, flushing the tx ring buffer after the hardware has already been shutdown and the ring buffer freed is neither required nor desirable. uart_flush_buffer() performs 3 operations: 1. Resets tx ring buffer indices, but the tx ring buffer has already been freed and the indices are reset if the port is re-opened. 2. Calls uart driver's flush_buffer() method 5 in-tree uart drivers define flush_buffer() methods: amba-pl011, atmel-serial, imx, serial-tegra, timbuart These have been refactored into the shutdown() method, if required. 3. Kicks the ldisc for more writing, but this is undesirable. The file handle is being released; any waiting writer will will be kicked out by tty_release() with a warning. Further, the N_TTY ldisc may generate SIGIO for a file handle which is no longer valid.

tty: serial: drop owner assignment from platform_drivers

A platform_driver does not need to set an owner, it will be populated by the driver core. Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang

serial: timbuart: Staticize local symbols

2013-08-12T18:35:31Z

These local symbols are used only in this file. Fix the following sparse warnings: drivers/tty/serial/timbuart.c:165:6: warning: symbol 'timbuart_handle_rx_port' was not declared. Should it be static? drivers/tty/serial/timbuart.c:187:6: warning: symbol 'timbuart_tasklet' was not declared. Should it be static? Signed-off-by: Jingoo Han Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

TTY: switch tty_flip_buffer_push

2013-01-16T06:30:15Z

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more tty_port_tty_get in those paths. Now, the one where most of tty_port_tty_get gets removed: tty_flip_buffer_push. IOW we also closed all the races in drivers not using tty_port_tty_get at all yet. Also we move tty_flip_buffer_push declaration from include/linux/tty.h to include/linux/tty_flip.h to all others while we are changing it anyway.

TTY: switch tty_insert_flip_char

2013-01-16T06:21:36Z

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more tty_port_tty_get in those paths. tty_insert_flip_char is the next one to proceed. This one is used all over the code, so the patch is huge.
