Peter Hurley 352f86187e tty: Document defunct ASYNC_* bits in uapi header
Note the serial_struct flags for which the kernel ignores and performs
no action. The flags cannot be removed since they form part of the
userspace interface via the TIOCSSERIAL/TIOCGSERIAL ioctls.

Peter Hurley 904326ecac tty,serial: Unify UPF_* and ASYNC_* flag definitions
The userspace-defined ASYNC_* flags in include/uapi/linux/tty_flags.h
are the authoritative bit definitions for the serial_struct flags,
and thus for any derivative values or fields.

Although the serial core provides the TIOCSSERIAL and TIOCGSERIAL
ioctls to set and retrieve these flags from userspace, it defines these
bits independently, as UPF_* macros.

Define the UPF_* macros which are userspace-modifiable directly from
the ASYNC_* symbolic constants. Add compile-time test to ensure the
bits changeable by TIOCSSERIAL match the defined range in the uapi
header.

Add ASYNCB_MAGIC_MULTIPLIER to the uapi header since this bit is
programmable by userspace.
