Decouple kernel.h from ratelimit.h: the global declaration of
printk's ratelimit_state is not needed, and it leads to messy
circular dependencies due to ratelimit.h's (new) adding of a
spinlock_types.h include.

I'd like to use printk_ratelimit() in NMI context, but it's not
robust right now due to spinlock usage in lib/ratelimit.c. If an
NMI is unlucky enough to hit just that spot we might lock up trying
to take the spinlock again.
Fix that by using a trylock variant. If we contend on that lock we
can genuinely skip the message because the state is just being
accessed by another CPU (or by this CPU).
( We could use atomics for the suppressed messages field, but
i doubt it matters in practice and it makes the code heavier. )

I'd like to use printk_ratelimit() in atomic context, but that's
not possible right now due to the spinlock usage this commit
introduced more than a year ago:
As a first step push the lock into the ratelimit state structure.
This allows us to deal with locking failures to be considered as an
event related to that state being too busy.
Also clean up the code a bit (without changing functionality):
- tidy up the definitions
- clean up the code flow
This also shrinks the code a tiny bit:
text data bss dec hex filename
264 0 4 268 10c ratelimit.o.before
255 0 0 255 ff ratelimit.o.after
( Whole-kernel data size got a bit larger, because we have
two ratelimit-state data structures right now. )

only once, when it is created. (Not to mention that these actions are
reversed when the tty is released, not when it is closed.) Finally,
it is at install time that the TTY core takes its own reference to the

disconnected then the routine will return with serial->disc_mutex
held, so that the caller can use the structure without fear of racing
against driver unloads.
This permits the scope of table_mutex in destroy_serial() to be
reduced. Instead of protecting the entire function, it suffices to
protect the part that actually uses serial_table[], i.e., the call to
return_serial(). There's no longer any danger of the refcount being
incremented after it reaches 0 (which was the reason for having the
large scope previously), because it can't reach 0 until the serial
device has been disconnected.

This patch (as1285) rearranges the subroutines in usb-serial.c
concerned with tty lifetimes into a more logical order: install, open,
hangup, close, release. It also updates the formatting of the
kerneldoc comments.

usb-serial: change referencing of port and serial structures
This patch (as1284) changes the referencing of the usb_serial and
usb_serial_port structures in usb-serial.c. It's not feasible to make
the port structures keep a reference to the serial structure, because
the ports need to remain in existence when serial is released -- quite
a few of the drivers expect this. Consequently taking a reference
to the port when the device file is open is insufficient; such a
reference would not pin serial.
To fix this, we now take a reference to serial when the device file is
opened. The final put_device() for the ports occurs in
destroy_serial(), so that the ports will last as long as they are
needed.
The patch initializes all the port devices, including those in the
unused "fake" ports. This makes the code more uniform because they
can all be released in the same way. The error handling code in
usb_serial_probe() is much simplified by this approach; instead of
freeing everything by hand we can use a single usb_serial_put() call.
Also simplified is the port-release mechanism. Instead of being two
separate routines, port_release() and port_free() can be combined into
one.
Add support for MOXA:0x1120 pci device. It's a 2-port device and differs
in no way from the others. So this turns out to be a trivial
pci_device_id change.
Stanse found a tty refcnt leak in read_int_callback. In fact
it's handled wrong altogether. tty_port_tty_get can return NULL
and it's not checked in that manner.
Fix that by checking the tty_port_tty_get retval and put tty kref
properly.

tty: Power: fix suspend vt regression
vt_waitactive no longer accepts console parameter as console-1
since commit "vt: add an event interface". It expects console
number directly (as viewed by userspace -- counting from 1).
Fix a deadlock suspend regression by redefining adding one
to vt in vt_move_to_console.

tty: handle VT specific compat ioctls in vt driver
The VT specific compat_ioctl handlers are the only ones
in common code that require the BKL. Moving them into

n_tty: move echoctl check and clean up logic
Check L_ECHOCTL before insertting a character in the echo buffer
(rather than as the buffer is processed), to be more consistent with
when all other L_ flags are checked. Also cleaned up the related logic.
Note that this and the previous patch ("n_tty: honor opost flag for echoes")
were verified together by the reporters of the bug that patch addresses
(http://bugs.linuxbase.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2692), and the test now passes.

tty: USB serial termios bits
Various drivers have hacks to mangle termios structures. This stems from

Set proper console speed on resume if console suspend is disabled
Commit b5b82df6, from May 2007, breaks no_console_suspend on the OLPC
XO laptop. Basically what happens is that upon returning from resume,
serial8250_resume_port() will reconfigure the port for high speed
mode and all console output will be garbled, making debug of the
resume path painful. This patch modifies uart_resume_port() to
reset the port to the state it was in before we suspended.
Original patch by Marcelo Tosatti
Second patch by Deepak then reworked by Alan to fit with the tty changes
before it got submitted. Also fixed the console path to set c_i/ospeed as
some drivers require the termios fields are valid
