These ioctls are undocumented and not exposed -- they are defined
locally. Given they need a special tty_port just for them, this is very
ugly. So drop this whole functionality. It is barely used for something
real. (And if it is, we'd need a common functionality to all drivers.)

__tty_alloc_driver()'s kernel-doc needed some care: describe the return
value using the standard "Returns:", and use the new enum tty_driver_flag
for @flags.
Then, the tty_alloc_driver() macro was undocumented, but referenced many
times in the docs. Copy the docs from the above (except the @owner
parameter, obviously).

n_tty_read() contains "we need more data" handling deep in that
function. And there is also a label (more_to_be_read) as we handle this
situation from two places.
It makes more sense to have all "return"s accumulated at the end of
functions. And "goto" from multiple places there. Therefore, do this
with the "more_to_be_read" label in n_tty_read().
After this and the previous changes, n_tty_read() is now much more
easier to follow.

* Use guard(mutex), which results in:
- the function can return directly when "space == 0".
- "i" can now be "unsigned" as it is no longer abused to hold a retval
from tty->ops->write(). Note the compared-to "nr" is already
"unsigned".
* The end label is now dubbed "do_write" as that is what happens there.
Unlike the uncertain "break_out" name.

tty_write_room() returns an "unsigned int". So in case some insane
driver (like my tty test driver) returns (legitimate) UINT_MAX from its
tty_operations::write_room(), n_tty is confused on several places.
For example, in process_output_block(), the result of tty_write_room()
is stored into (signed) "int". So this UINT_MAX suddenly becomes -1. And
that is extended to ssize_t and returned from process_output_block().
This causes a write() to such a node to receive -EPERM (which is -1).
Fix that by using proper "unsigned int" and proper "== 0" test. And
return 0 constant directly in that "if", so that it is immediately clear
what is returned ("space" equals to 0 at that point).
Similarly for process_output() and __process_echoes().
Note this does not fix any in-tree driver as of now.
If you want "Fixes: something", it would be commit 03b3b1a240 ("tty:
make tty_operations::write_room return uint"). I intentionally do not
mark this patch by a real tag below.

"N_TTY_BUF_SIZE" is private to n_tty and shall not be exposed to the
world. Definitely not in tty.h somewhere in the middle of "struct
tty_struct".
This is a remnant of moving "read_flags" to "struct n_tty_data" in
commit 3fe780b379 ("TTY: move ldisc data from tty_struct: bitmaps").
But some cleanup was needed first (in previous patches).

The new option is CONFIG_NULL_TTY_DEFAULT_CONSOLE.
if enabled, and CONFIG_VT is disabled, ttynull will become the default
primary console device.
ttynull will be the only console device usually with this option enabled.
Some architectures do call add_preferred_console() which may add another
console though.
Motivation:
Many distributions ship with CONFIG_VT enabled. On tested desktop hardware
if CONFIG_VT is disabled, the default console device falls back to
/dev/ttyS0 instead of /dev/tty.
This could cause issues in user space, and hardware problems:
1. The user space issues include the case where /dev/ttyS0 is
disconnected, and the TCGETS ioctl, which some user space libraries use
as a probe to determine if a file is a tty, is called on /dev/console and
fails. Programs that call isatty() on /dev/console and get an incorrect
false value may skip expected logging to /dev/console.
2. The hardware issues include the case if a user has a science instrument
or other device connected to the /dev/ttyS0 port, and they were to upgrade
to a kernel that is disabling the CONFIG_VT option, kernel logs will then
be sent to the device connected to /dev/ttyS0 unless they edit their
kernel command line manually.
The new CONFIG_NULL_TTY_DEFAULT_CONSOLE option will give users and
distribution maintainers an option to avoid this. Disabling CONFIG_VT and
enabling CONFIG_NULL_TTY_DEFAULT_CONSOLE will ensure the default kernel
console behavior is not dependent on hardware configuration by default, and
avoid unexpected new behavior on devices connected to the /dev/ttyS0 serial
port.

This warning is emitted when trying to toggle, at the highest level,
some flow control (with serdev_device_set_flow_control) in a device
driver. At the lowest level, the atmel_serial driver is using
serial_mctrl_gpio lib to enable/disable the corresponding IRQs
accordingly. The warning emitted by CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP is due to
disable_irq (called in mctrl_gpio_disable_ms) being possibly called in
some atomic context (some tty drivers perform modem lines configuration
in regions protected by port lock).
Split mctrl_gpio_disable_ms into two differents APIs, a non-blocking one
and a blocking one. Replace mctrl_gpio_disable_ms calls with the
relevant version depending on whether the call is protected by some port
lock.

The Tegra264 SoC supports the UART Trace Controller (UTC), which allows
multiple firmware clients (up to 16) to share a single physical UART.
Each client is provided with its own interrupt and has access to a
128-character wide FIFO for both transmit (TX) and receive (RX)
operations.
Add tegra-utc driver to support Tegra UART Trace Controller (UTC)
client.

The Renesas RZ/G3S supports a power saving mode where power to most of the
SoC components is turned off. When returning from this power saving mode,
SoC components need to be re-configured.
The SCIFs on the Renesas RZ/G3S need to be re-configured as well when
returning from this power saving mode. The sh-sci code already configures
the SCIF clocks, power domain and registers by calling uart_resume_port()
in sci_resume(). On suspend path the SCIF UART ports are suspended
accordingly (by calling uart_suspend_port() in sci_suspend()). The only
missing setting is the reset signal. For this assert/de-assert the reset
signal on driver suspend/resume.
In case the no_console_suspend is specified by the user, the registers need
to be saved on suspend path and restore on resume path. To do this the
sci_console_save()/sci_console_restore() functions were added. There is no
need to cache/restore the status or FIFO registers. Only the control
registers. The registers that will be saved/restored on suspend/resume are
specified by the struct sci_suspend_regs data structure.

When flushing the serial port's buffer, uart_flush_buffer() calls
kfifo_reset() but if there is an outstanding DMA transfer then the
completion function will consume data from the kfifo via
uart_xmit_advance(), underflowing and leading to ongoing DMA as the
driver tries to transmit another 2^32 bytes.
This is readily reproduced with serial-generic and amidi sending even
short messages as closing the device on exit will wait for the fifo to
drain and in the underflow case amidi hangs for 30 seconds on exit in
tty_wait_until_sent(). A trace of that gives:
kworker/1:1-84 [001] 51.769423: bprint: serial8250_tx_dma: tx_size=3 fifo_len=3

irq/21-fe530000-76 [000] 51.804949: bprint: __dma_tx_complete: tx_size=4096
Since the port lock is held in when the kfifo is reset in
uart_flush_buffer() and in __dma_tx_complete(), adding a flush_buffer
hook to adjust the outstanding DMA byte count is sufficient to avoid the
kfifo underflow.

The FMODE_NONOTIFY_* bits are a 2-bits mode. Open coding manipulation
of those bits is risky. Use an accessor file_set_fsnotify_mode() to
set the mode.
Rename file_set_fsnotify_mode() => file_set_fsnotify_mode_from_watchers()
to make way for the simple accessor name.

the code doesn't do that in the case when use_defaults == false
and the value of reg-io-width is unsupported. Make sure the code
follows the documentation.
Note, the current users of the uart_read_and_validate_port_properties()
will fail and the change doesn't affect their behaviour, neither
users of uart_read_port_properties() will be affected since the
alteration happens there even in the current code flow.
