YueHaibing 3b1ad360ac pps: using ERR_PTR instead of NULL while pps_register_source fails
pps_register_source() has keeps error codes in a local variable,
but it does not make use of the code. This patch let it return
the errcode in case of failure.

George Spelvin 593fb1ae45 pps: Move timestamp read into PPS code proper
The PPS (Pulse-Per-Second) line discipline has developed a number of
unhealthy attachments to core tty data and functions, ultimately leading
to its breakage.

The previous patches fixed the crashing.  This one reduces coupling further
by eliminating the timestamp parameter from the dcd_change ldisc method.
This reduces header file linkage and makes the extension more generic,
and the timestamp read is delayed only slightly, from just before the
ldisc->ops->dcd_change method call to just after.

Fix attendant build breakage in
    drivers/tty/n_tty.c
    drivers/tty/tty_buffer.c
    drivers/staging/speakup/selection.c
    drivers/staging/dgrp/dgrp_*.c

George Spelvin ce3da1a654 pps: Don't crash the machine when exiting will do
PPS is not really the must-have subsystem that warrants crashing
the machine if the ldisc interface is broken.

George Spelvin 03a7ffe4e5 pps: Use pps_lookup_dev to reduce ldisc coupling
Now that N_TTY uses tty->disc_data for its private data,
'subclass' ldiscs cannot use ->disc_data for their own private data.
(This is a regression is v3.8-rc1)

Use pps_lookup_dev to associate the tty with the pps source instead.

This fixes a crashing regression in 3.8-rc1.

Alexander Gordeev 12f9b1f9c1 pps: timestamp is always passed to dcd_change()
Remove the code that gatheres timestamp in pps_tty_dcd_change() in case
passed ts parameter is NULL because it never happens in the current code.
Fix comments as well.

Alexander Gordeev 7f7cce7410 pps: convert printk/pr_* to dev_*
Since we now have direct pointers to struct pps_device everywhere it's
easy to use dev_* functions to print messages instead of plain printks.
Where dev_* cannot be used printks are converted to pr_*.

Alexander Gordeev 5e196d34a7 pps: access pps device by direct pointer
Using device index as a pointer needs some unnecessary work to be done
every time the pointer is needed (in irq handler for example).  Using a
direct pointer is much more easy (and safe as well).
