Add two callbacks for hardware assisted flow control; we need to know
when the tty layers want us to stop and restart due to their buffer
levels.

Call a driver specific throttle/unthrottle function if and only if the
driver indicates that it is using an enabled hardware assisted flow
control method, otherwise fall back to the non-hardware assisted
methods.

tty/serial/core: Introduce poll_init callback 2012-09-26T20:47:02+00:00 Anton Vorontsov anton.vorontsov@linaro.org 2012-09-24T21:27:53+00:00 c7f3e7087ab0abb52bb1286010f2c104fd38ca5c It was noticed that polling drivers (like KGDB) are not able to use serial ports if the ports were not previously initialized via console. I.e. when booting with console=ttyAMA0 kgdboc=ttyAMA0, everything works fine, but with console=ttyFOO kgdboc=ttyAMA0, the kgdboc doesn't work. This is because we don't initialize the hardware. Calling ->startup() is not an option, because drivers request interrupts there, and drivers fail to handle situations when tty isn't opened with interrupts enabled. So, we have to implement a new callback (actually, tty_ops already have a similar callback), which does everything needed to initialize just the hardware.
