USB ipaq driver

Fixed a panic caused by the line discipline echoing characters. It
also fixes a problem where the echoing messes up ppp chat.

* The ipaq sometimes emits a '\0' before the CLIENT string. At this
* point of time, the ppp ldisc is not yet attached to the tty, so
* n_tty echoes "^ " to the ipaq, which messes up the chat. In 2.5.6-pre2
* this causes a panic because echo_char() tries to sleep in interrupt
* context.
* The fix is to tell the upper layers that this is a raw device so that
* echoing is suppressed. Thanks to Lyle Lindholm for a detailed bug
* report.

* Added support for the HP Jornada 548 and 568. Completely untested.
* Thanks to info from Heath Robinson and Arieh Davidoff.
