      TTY: con3215, add tty_port · 8dd360f0

      And use flags from that. But first we have to get rid of duplicated
      flag names. From now on, for the standard ones that are stored in
      tty_port->flags, we use ASYNC_* ones.

      TTY: hvc, fix TTY refcounting · a2f89206
      Jiri Slaby authored
      A -next commit "TTY: HVC, use tty from tty_port" switched the driver
      to use tty_port helper for tty refcounting. But it omitted to remove
      manual tty refcounting from open, close and hangup. So now we are
      getting random crashes caused by use-after-free:
      Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0xc0000003f9d550
