The driver had incorrectly wrapped module_init(rp_init) in #ifdef MODULE,
so it worked only when compiled as a module.

Tested by Wolfgang Denk with this device:

If bailing out because there is nothing to receive in rp_do_receive(),
tty_ldisc_deref is not called.  Failure to do so increases the ref count
and causes release_dev() to hang since it can't get the ref count to 0.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
