Pull tty/serial driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of tty/serial driver changes for 5.12-rc1.

  Nothing huge, just lots of good cleanups and additions:

   - vt core cleanups and reworks to make the code more "modern"

   - stm32 driver additions

   - tty led support added to the tty core and led layer

   - minor serial driver fixups and additions

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues"

The main purpose of tty_port::low_latency was removed in commit
a9c3f68f3cd8 (tty: Fix low_latency BUG) back in 2014. It was left in
place for drivers as an optional tune knob. But only one driver has been
using it until the previous commit. So remove this misconcept
completely, given there are no users.

<title>net: caif: Use netif_rx_any_context()</title>

<content type='text'>
The usage of in_interrupt() in non-core code is phased out. Ideally the
information of the calling context should be passed by the callers or the
functions be split as appropriate.

cfhsi_rx_desc() and cfhsi_rx_pld() use in_interrupt() to distinguish if
they should use netif_rx() or netif_rx_ni() for receiving packets.

The attempt to consolidate the code by passing an arguemnt or by
distangling it failed due lack of knowledge about this driver and because
the call chains are hard to follow.

As a stop gap use netif_rx_any_context() which invokes the correct code path
depending on context and confines the in_interrupt() usage to core code.

<title>net: caif: Remove unused caif SPI driver</title>

While chasing in_interrupt() (ab)use in drivers it turned out that the
caif_spi driver has never been in use since the driver was merged 10 years
ago. There never was any matching code which provides a platform device.

The driver has not seen any update (asided of treewide changes and
cleanups) since 8 years and the maintainers vanished from the planet.

So analysing the potential contexts and the (in)correctness of
in_interrupt() usage is just a pointless exercise.

Remove the cruft.

The method ndo_start_xmit() is defined as returning an 'netdev_tx_t',
which is a typedef for an enum type, but the implementation in this
driver returns an 'int'.

Fix this by returning 'netdev_tx_t' in this driver too.
