of_alias_get_id() is broken and being reverted. Remove the reference
to it and replace with a single incrementing id number.
There is no risk of regression here on the imx driver since the imx
change to use of_alias_get_id() is commit 22698aa2, "serial/imx: add
device tree probe support" which is new for v3.1, and it won't get
used unless CONFIG_OF is enabled and the board is booted using a
device tree. A single incrementing integer is sufficient for now.

The patch removes all the uses of cpu_is_mx1(). Instead, it uses
the .id_table of platform_driver to distinguish the uart device type,
IMX1_UART and IMX21_UART. The IMX21_UART type runs on all i.mx
except i.mx1.
A couple of !cpu_is_mx1 logic gets turned into is_imx21_uart,
as the codes wrapped there are really IMX21 type uart specific.
It also removes macro MX1_UCR3_REF25 and MX1_UCR3_REF30 which are
not used anywhere.

commit 4d2bb3f500 (powerpc/pseries: Re-implement HVSI as part of
hvc_vio) changed udbg_getc to be based on hvterm_raw_get_chars.
Unfortunately hvterm_raw_get_chars returns -EAGAIN if you ask
for anything less than 16 characters. As a result xmon no longer
accepts input and prints a stream of junk to the screen.
The recent change highlights a problem that xmon on pseries VIO
has had all along, that it can drop input characters. The issue
is the hypervisor call does not take a count argument and can
return up to 16 characters.
This patch adds a per vterm buffer that we copy input data into

Currently, the hvc_console_print() function drops console output if the
hvc backend's put_chars() returns 0. This patch changes this behavior
to allow a retry through returning -EAGAIN.
This change also affects the hvc_push() function. Both functions are
changed to handle -EAGAIN and to retry the put_chars() operation.
If a hvc backend returns -EAGAIN, the retry handling differs:
- hvc_console_print() spins to write the complete console output.
- hvc_push() behaves the same way as for returning 0.
Now hvc backends can indirectly control the way how console output is
handled through the hvc console layer.

This workaround aims to break the deadlock situation
which raises during continuous transfer of data for long
duration over uart with hardware flow control. It is
observed that CTS interrupt cannot be cleared in uart
interrupt register (ICR). Hence further transfer over
uart gets blocked.
It is seen that during such deadlock condition ICR
don't get cleared even on multiple write. This leads
pass_counter to decrease and finally reach zero. This
can be taken as trigger point to run this UART_BT_WA.
Workaround backups the register configuration, does soft
reset of UART using BIT-0 of PRCC_K_SOFTRST_SET/CLEAR
registers and restores the registers.
This patch also provides support for uart init and exit
function calls if present.

The gsm_mux is created/destroyed when ldisc is
opened/closed but clients of the MUX channel devices (gsmttyN)
may access this structure as long as the TTYs are open.
For the open, the ldisc open is guaranteed to preceed the TTY open,
but the close has no such guaranteed ordering. As a result,
the gsm_mux can be freed in the ldisc close before being accessed
by one of the TTY clients. This can happen if the ldisc is removed
while there are open, active MUX channels.
A similar situation exists for DLCI-0, it is basically a resource
shared by MUX and DLCI , and should not be freed while they can
be accessed
To avoid this, gsm_mux and dlcis now have a reference counter
ldisc open takes a reference on the mux and all the dlcis
gsmtty_open takes a reference on the mux, dlci0 and its specific
dlci. Dropping the last reference initiates the actual free.

This patch adds the ability to open a network data connection over a mux
virtual tty channel. This is for modems that support data connections
with raw IP frames instead of PPP. On high speed data connections this
eliminates a significant amount of PPP overhead. To use this interface,
the application must first tell the modem to open a network connection on
a virtual tty. Once that has been accomplished, the app will issue an
IOCTL on that virtual tty to create the network interface. The IOCTL will
return the index of the interface created.
The two IOCTL commands are:
ioctl( fd, GSMIOC_ENABLE_NET );
ioctl( fd, GSMIOC_DISABLE_NET );

On pseries machines, consoles are provided by the hypervisor using
a low level get_chars/put_chars type interface. However, this is
really just a transport to the service processor which implements
them either as "raw" console (networked consoles, HMC, ...) or as
"hvsi" serial ports.
The later is a simple packet protocol on top of the raw character
interface that is supposed to convey additional "serial port" style
semantics. In practice however, all it does is provide a way to
read the CD line and set/clear our DTR line, that's it.
We currently implement the "raw" protocol as an hvc console backend
(/dev/hvcN) and the "hvsi" protocol using a separate tty driver
(/dev/hvsi0).
However this is quite impractical. The arbitrary difference between
the two type of devices has been a major source of user (and distro)
confusion. Additionally, there's an additional mini -hvsi implementation
in the pseries platform code for our low level debug console and early
boot kernel messages, which means code duplication, though that low
level variant is impractical as it's incapable of doing the initial
protocol negociation to establish the link to the FSP.
This essentially replaces the dedicated hvsi driver and the platform
udbg code completely by extending the existing hvc_vio backend used
in "raw" mode so that:
- It now supports HVSI as well
- We add support for hvc backend providing tiocm{get,set}
- It also provides a udbg interface for early debug and boot console
This is overall less code, though this will only be obvious once we
remove the old "hvsi" driver, which is still available for now. When
the old driver is enabled, the new code still kicks in for the low
level udbg console, replacing the old mini implementation in the platform
code, it just doesn't provide the higher level "hvc" interface.
In addition to producing generally simler code, this has several benefits
over our current situation:
- The user/distro only has to deal with /dev/hvcN for the hypervisor
console, avoiding all sort of confusion that has plagued us in the past
- The tty, kernel and low level debug console all use the same code
base which supports the full protocol establishment process, thus the
console is now available much earlier than it used to be with the
old HVSI driver. The kernel console works much earlier and udbg is
available much earlier too. Hackers can enable a hard coded very-early
debug console as well that works with HVSI (previously that was only
supported for the "raw" mode).
I've tried to keep the same semantics as hvsi relative to how I react
to things like CD changes, with some subtle differences though:
- I clear DTR on close if HUPCL is set
- Current hvsi triggers a hangup if it detects a up->down transition
on CD (you can still open a console with CD down). My new implementation
triggers a hangup if the link to the FSP is severed, and severs it upon
detecting a up->down transition on CD.

Embed the struct hvsi_header in the various packet definitions
rather than open coding it multiple times. Will help provide
stronger type checking.
