Dan Carpenter noticed a missing set of parentheses
around a multiple field addition.

https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/1/27/166

His original commit message:

There is a kind of precedence problem here, but it doesn't affect how
the code works because -&gt;serial_signals is unsigned char.  We want to
clear two flags here.

#define SerialSignal_RTS            0x20     /* Request to Send */
#define SerialSignal_DTR            0x80     /* Data Terminal Ready */

Without the parenthesis then it does:

	info-&gt;serial_signals &amp;= 0x5f;

With the parenthesis it does:

	info-&gt;serial_signals &amp;= 0xffffff5f;

info-&gt;serial_signals is an unsigned char so the two statements are
equivalent, but it's cleaner to add the parenthesis.  In other dtr_rts()
functions the parenthesis are there so this makes it more consistent.

Other changes:

Convert all + uses to | for these bit operations.

Reorder the multiple fields for consistency.
Update the comments too.

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use
tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many
call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more
tty_port_tty_get in those paths.

Now, the one where most of tty_port_tty_get gets removed:
tty_flip_buffer_push.

IOW we also closed all the races in drivers not using tty_port_tty_get
at all yet.

Also we move tty_flip_buffer_push declaration from include/linux/tty.h
to include/linux/tty_flip.h to all others while we are changing it
anyway.

One point is to have less places where we actually need tty pointer.
The other is that low_latency is bound to buffer processing and
buffers are now in tty_port. So it makes sense to move low_latency to
tty_port too.

Fix call to line discipline receive_buf by synclink drivers.
Dummy flag buffer argument is ignored by N_HDLC line discipline but might
be of insufficient size if accessed by a different line discipline
selected by mistake. flag buffer allocation now matches max size of data
buffer. Unused char_buf buffers are removed.

<title>TTY: call tty_port_destroy in the rest of drivers</title>

After commit "TTY: move tty buffers to tty_port", the tty buffers are
not freed in some drivers. This is because tty_port_destructor is not
called whenever a tty_port is freed. This was an assumption I counted
with but was unfortunately untrue. So fix the drivers to fulfil this
assumption.

To be sure, the TTY buffers (and later some stuff) are gone along with
the tty_port, we have to call tty_port_destroy at tear-down places.
This is mostly where the structure containing a tty_port is freed.
This patch does exactly that -- put tty_port_destroy at those places.

In most of the time, the driver needs to check if the cts flow control
is enabled. But now, the driver checks the ASYNC_CTS_FLOW flag manually,
which is not a grace way. So add a new wraper function to make the code
tidy and clean.
